Developmental delay: Yes it is of concern. We expect to see babies crawling sometime between 6-10 months. Along with crawling we expect to see "cruising" which is where the pull themselves to their feet and walk along holding onto furniture.The first steps should happen around 12 months.At the one year well child check discuss this with your pediatrician so appropriate referrals can be made if necessary.Good luck.
