Started pulling up and walking at 9.5. Actually he figured out crawling the same day he started walking coincidentally but still never was very interested in it. Also was not much of a roller or scooter of any type before walking. I know of lots of kids like this too and everyone turned out great (usually just early walkers). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/skip-crawling#post-2517088 Wed, 06 Apr 2016 11:05:12 +0000 jhd 2517088@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@meredithNYC: @CakeLady: another scooter here! My sister called him a little monkey! ;) He went from scooting to walking. Now we giggle at him when he crawls on all fours because he never did it before. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/skip-crawling#post-2516966 Wed, 06 Apr 2016 09:51:31 +0000 MrsBrewer 2516966@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Aww! I love the butt scooters! </p> <p>@mrsjyw: interesting that they cruised before crawled! I guess I am just used to hearing about babies crawling first! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/skip-crawling#post-2516920 Wed, 06 Apr 2016 09:25:27 +0000 meredithNYC 2516920@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@CakeLady: I am always so relieved to come across other parents of "scooters," lol. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/skip-crawling#post-2516919 Wed, 06 Apr 2016 09:25:22 +0000 mrsjyw 2516919@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Both DSs learned to pull up and stand and even cruise a bit before they started actual crawling... DS1 crawled at 9 months, DS2 is army crawling at 8.5 months... DS1 crawled for about a month or two then started walking. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/skip-crawling#post-2516915 Wed, 06 Apr 2016 09:24:29 +0000 CakeLady 2516915@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS scooted on his butt until he started walking at 12.5 months. He finally started crawling at 16 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/skip-crawling#post-2516911 Wed, 06 Apr 2016 09:21:10 +0000 meredithNYC 2516911@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO is 11 months and he scoots on his bum everywhere, with no interest in crawling. I suspect he's just going to go from scooting to walking, but we'll see... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/skip-crawling#post-2516909 Wed, 06 Apr 2016 09:20:33 +0000 jetsa 2516909@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Our son did this but then at about 11.5 months figured out crawling and did not walk until 14/15 months :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/skip-crawling#post-2516888 Wed, 06 Apr 2016 09:12:25 +0000 MrsBrewer 2516888@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Does anyone have a LO that skipped crawling?? </p> <p>My LO is 10 months old, and is still not crawling! But she's still getting around everywhere! She mostly rolls, but has started to army crawl a tiny bit. But she's much more interested in pulling up and standing next to things now. I have a feeling once she gets a little more confident in her balance, she will be walking. Therefore, skipping crawling!!</p> <p>Anyone else? </p>
