When should baby start to crawl?
Q I am aware that each child is different, but approximately when can you expect a baby to crawl?
A Some babies can crawl as early as 7 months and as late as 10 or 11 months. If you have concerns about your baby's development, you need to look at other milestones, too. Usually they are picking up small objects with the finger and thumb by 8 to 10 months, babbling "dada" by 8 to 11 months. There are good books on basic baby development, like the series by Penelope Leach or What to Expect the First Year.
