“Will my baby ever crawl?” is one of the most common questions we hear.
Here’s what the research tells us:
50% of babies are crawling by 8.5 months
90% of babies are crawling by 13 months

So if your little one isn’t on the move yet — don’t panic. Every baby’s journey looks different.

Instead, focus on the mini milestones that lead to crawling. (slide through the post).

More milestone tips are up on our blog — link in bio.

KIDS TOY TIP.
This one’s a must-have. The piggy bank is a physio favourite for good reason — it’s simple, versatile, and kids love it.
Here’s why we rate it so highly:
Use it for every gross motor milestones from 0-18months
Builds gross motor skills whilst building fine motor, counting skills, colour recognition skills and motor planning skills.

We use it for tummy time (it sings), we use it for sitting balance and reaching, to encourage
high kneeling, standing balance, and trunk control.

It’s one of those rare toys that ticks all the boxes for development and play. If you only buy one toy for your little one — make it this.

We’ve linked our favourite piggy bank in the bio so you can grab one today.

One toy, endless opportunities.

Side lying Play - Your tummy time secret Weapon.

Let’s be honest, the daily tummy time battle can be... a lot. 😅 The crying, the face-planting, the constant watching of the clock. It’s tough when you know it’s important but your baby just isn’t having it.

But what if I told you there’s another powerhouse position that gives many of the same benefits, with a lot less fuss?

Try: SIDE-LYING!

As a paediatric physio, this is one of my favorite positions to recommend. As you can see in the carousel, it’s a game-changer for:
✅ Preventing flat spots and managing neck tightness
✅ Building the core strength needed for rolling
✅ Helping baby discover their hands in the middle

It’s the perfect alternative for a fussy baby or to simply mix things up in your daily routine!

Which position does your baby prefer? Tummy, back, or have you tried side-lying? Share your story below. You are not alone!

POV: You’re at the your mother’s group, looking at the toddlers running around, and wondering… “Why isn’t my baby walking yet?”

Here’s what you need to know:
✔️ Walking can develop anytime between 9–18 months.
✔️ Focus on the mini milestones that happen Before walking. Babies pull to stand, cruise along furniture and squat when holding on before they can walk.
✔️ Each of these builds the strength and balance needed for independent walking.

It’s not about being “late.”

And yes, they will get there.
