The child is nine months old and still cannot crawl.

Patient's question:

Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: The child is nine and a half months old and cannot crawl yet, weighing less than 10 kilograms. Please ask the doctor, what is going on? What should we adults do?
Patient age: Nine and a half months
First follow-up question: The child has four teeth, and another one is coming in. Recent trace element tests showed a slight calcium deficiency, and the child can sit.

Doctor's answer:

9 months have passed, and I really don't think he can crawl yet? Generally speaking, I think he should have this ability!
But how can we inspire this urge in him? Of course, it's by making him feel the convenience of this movement and the sense of security it provides! Only by practicing this movement can he learn to balance his body, gain a sense of security, and experience the joy and freedom of convenience! These feelings are very important, as they have a very positive stimulating effect on the baby's physical and neurological development.
