The six-to-nine-month stage
From six months onwards your baby will be learning how to get around as crawling begins. She may start by crawling backwards, or may not crawl at all but bottom shuffle instead. She'll be able to sit without support, and by the time she's nine months old she may be able to pull herself up to stand using furniture or your helping hands.
You'll hear repeated sounds like "dadadadada" as well as imitations of sounds you make. These are the building blocks for first words which will come along around 12 to 15 months of age.
Your baby needs to be talked to in order to stimulate her own vocabulary - no matter how limited! If you're concerned about your baby's speech development, it may be worth talking to your doctor and asking for a hearing test.

Well each child is different. My oldest didn't crawl until he was a year old but my youngest crawled at 9 months. Then my some of my nephews have crawled at 7 months. There are 18 grandkids in my family so I would have to say with an average of them it would be about 9 months is normal but just remember each kid is different.

Actually, technically, crawling isnt even a milestone. Some babies never crawl, and walk just fine later. But mine started around 6 months

7or 8 is average i believe. my son is almost 6 months and he is starting to. he can scoot backwarb and he can get up on all 4s and throw himself forward like an inch worm. the average age isnt really reliable though because every baby is different. 7-9 is average age to get teeth and my kid got 2 teeth at 4 months.

it varies from baby to baby. since babies don't sleep on their tummies anymore, it might take them longer to develop the muscles necessary for crawling. the average seems to be about 7-8 months, but ask your pediatrician about it. my daughter is 8 months old and has yet to crawl; my pediatrician says the same of her daughter. it just depends.
good luck!

I have a 7 month old and she just started sitting up by herself. Some babies dont crawl at all. They just go straight to walking......my mother in law tells me that my husband went straight to walking at 8 months.
