How can I encourage my baby to crawl? He is 8m and seems to have a very passive personality. If his toys are out of reach, he will try to extend his hands to reach but if cant he will just settle without them. tried all mthds to put his fave toys nearer/ further away and not pick out toys for him but none works. He also doesn't pass objects from hand to hand & dislike holding on objects. the only thing he can hold really well is his milk bottles during feeds. Any one face similar situation too? The pd doesn't seems very worried about it but I am!

Babies have their own pace of development so don't worry. Try putting his favourite toy or even food like finger food or biscuits. Play some music or nursery rhyme when he is trying to crawl because that helps. Crawling is achieve even when their usage of left and right brain can balance and music helps in that
