At what months can babies crawl?

Many mothers observe their children's various symptoms as they see their children growing up day by day. Many children will start to crawl when they reach a certain age. If their children still cannot crawl at 7 months old, then many mothers will worry about their children's development, fearing that such a phenomenon is caused by poor development of the children. When will the children learn to crawl? This is also the common voice and question of many people. Let's take a look at it below.

There is a saying: Two lifts, three flips, six sits, seven rolls, eight crawls, nine stands, and one walks

Second lift:

At two months, the baby can lift his head and twist left and right while crawling.

Three turns:

At three months old, turn the baby over and lie on his stomach, and he can lift his head. When lying down, he can turn sideways or turn over to lie on his stomach.

Six seats:

At six months old, the baby can sit on his own and sit relatively stably, which means he will not fall down suddenly and can balance his body on his own.

Seven rolls:

At seven months, the baby can roll over on a flat surface such as on the bed or on the ground. Not rolling with the head down, but lying flat, turning sideways in the same direction, lying down, turning sideways again, and lying flat again. This kind of rolling is continuous, in the same direction, and turning sideways.

Eight crawls:

At eight months old, the baby starts to crawl! Haha, it starts to evolve from worms to reptiles~~~ It learns to coordinate the movements of its limbs and starts to crawl. Be careful at this time, be careful not to fall off the bed!

Jiuli:

At nine months old, babies have stronger body stability and motor skills, and can stand for a long time with the support of objects.

Going for a while:

A one-year-old baby may be gone.

However, it also depends on the baby's physical development. For example, some babies can walk before they are one year old, while some cannot walk until they are one and a half years old. This is just a reference.

Most babies can crawl at 7 to 8 months old, but the development of gross motor skills varies, and some babies never crawl. Sometimes it is also related to the baby being fat or lacking exercise. Crawling training should be strengthened. If the baby cannot support his chest and abdomen, you can put a pillow or cushion under his chest, prop up his upper body and practice support. You can also use a large towel to cover his abdomen to help him lose his own weight. When letting him practice crawling, one parent can hold the baby's favorite toy in front to tease him, while the other parent pushes the baby's feet from behind to help him crawl. Two parents can also hold the baby's forearms and calves respectively to help him crawl. Pay attention to the coordination of hands and feet when doing this, and avoid moving hands and feet at the same time. Parents can also take their babies to professional healthcare institutions to receive training under the guidance of rehabilitation trainers. You can put a mat or blanket on the floor for your baby to practice crawling.

If the baby still cannot crawl after reaching a certain age, you need to find out the reason. It may be because he does not get enough exercise, or the child's intellectual development is not good, or more likely it is due to factors such as poor development of the baby's lower limbs. These factors will cause the baby to be unable to crawl. If you know the reason and improve the child in time, the baby will crawl soon.
