I have a theory about when babies start to crawl.

Humor me and tell me the month of your babe's birth and the month at which they started to crawl (also, if you could tell me the state you lived in when your babe started to crawl).

So, for me:

Lauren, born in June, crawled at 6 months, living in KS
Jonathan's not crawling yet.

Abby - February - 6 months - OH
Cole - April - 6 months - NC
Gage - August - 7 months - NC
Seth - August - 7 months - NC

Can't wait to hear your theory! :happy:

Isaac
Born in January (the 23rd)
crawled at 7 months
Maine

cole-august-9 mo-GA
he was 5 weeks early & wasnt really interrested in crawling, but he mostly cruised the furniture & w/walking toys starting around 7 mo.

journey-january-8 mo-GA
loves to crawl!!

savannah, born in may, crawling at 8 1/2 months -Ga

jackson is almost crawling at 7 months, born in april -Ga

so when do we get to hear the theory??

Miguel born in June crawled in December in GA

i'm going to guess the crawling theory has something to do with what clothes the babies are wearing (depending on season)

Armand, MN, Sept, 6 months
The rest born/living in OH
Brendan, Aug, 6 months
Ophelia, March, 12 months (she actually scooted while sitting on her butt first-maybe around 8-9 months)
Rónán, April, not yet but he probably will in the next month

i'm going to guess the crawling theory has something to do with what clothes the babies are wearing (depending on season)

bingo, but I don't have enough responses yet. i.e., samples size is not large enough. Think I'll cross post to market board.

i think you have to take into account cloth diapers vs sposies too

Miles-May-10 months-TX (actually learned to crawl on the airplane on the way home from a trip to France)
Quinten-March-not crawling at 8 months-CA (weather is still warm and he isn't bundled up by clothes at all)
I'd have to say my kiddos are just late at the mobility things. They both have cautious personalities-just something to take into account so we don't foul up your theory.

Sophia was born in September, crawled at 7 months (April) , living in Indiana :)

Bailee was 9 mos , born in October , Ohio
makenna was 7 mos born in July, Ohio
sully is 6 1/2 mos ( he does the army crawl backwards , does that count?) if not he ain't crawling yet adn you guessed we are l;iving in O-H-I-O ( GO BUCKEYES!!!!!!!)

Brendan, born in August, crawled at 8 1/2 months, NC
Ian, born in Jan., crawled at 6 months, WALKED at 8 1/2 months (I cried, LOL), NC
Connor, born in June, not crawling yet.

K aya, born in April, crawled at 8 mos in NJ
E llery, born in March, crawled at 7 mos in NJ

Len was born feb 24th in CA and crawled at 5 1/2 months

Gwen, born in August, crawled at, hm, well she never really was much of a crawler, 8 months I am saying. Born in Portland, Oregon.

DS is 4 1/2 months and hasn't even rolled over yet!

Lindsey, born in GA on July 31st, crawled the day she turned 5 1/2 months (so January)
Joshua, born in GA on Dec 17th, crawled at 6 1/2 months (July)
Leila was born in GA on July 28th - and she inchworms but isn't crawling yet thank goodness

lucien born in january, missouri, and 9 months (but didn't really utilize it)
rowan July, 4 1/2 mnts not crawling yet

Leah~crawled at 9 months(born in November)-New Mexico and wore cloth.(we also had heated floors)
Aidra~crawled at 7 months(born in Septemebr-but seasons are reversed here-lol), New Zealand, and cloth dipes.

Neither of my kids were big chunky kids. Leah was average and Aidra was tiny/petite.

Erik, born in November, started crawling in June, 7 months, in IL

Anders, born in March, started crawling in October, 7 months, in Northern CA

Cole - born in April, began crawling in October - 7 months (standing by 9 months, but didn't walk until 17 months)
Truman - born in January - he started crawling in October, and it's still just an army crawl, not on his hands yet - 9 months

They both started crawling in the same month of the year. hmm.

But honestly, Truman is a slow bloomer in other ways as well, so I think it's just his personality. He's just getting his pincher grasp to work, and he didn't really do much rolling over until he started almost crawling.
