🤔 Will there be some kids that do ok if they skip crawling? Sure…some. But I haven’t met one pediatric OT or PT that agrees that it should no longer be a milestone, despite this new suggestion by the CDC. My concern is that parents will think they should encourage their babies to skip crawling…and that’s not a good thing. ✨The true experts say crawling is important and essential for many kids to develop the gross motor stability needed for developing age appropriate fine motor skills. Eating is a fine motor skill and chewing and safe swallowing are always always always dependent upon trunk strength and stability. DROP ANY COLOR HEART IN THE COMMENTS IF YOU AGREE ❤️💜💕❤️💜💕 #melaniepotock
