[quote=Anonymous][quote]This is not true! There are two schools, one says it's not another says it is. We went all the way to find a PT in the "crawling is important" school to help our LO to develop her potential. DC had low muscle tone and w/o PT I can't imagine where we would be now. DC walked a few weeks after the 12 months appointment and is still working on the skills needed to crawl. The crawling position helps with the development of important muscles on their shoulders, back and neck. I'd advise you to seek professional help. [/quote] OP here. Interesting. Your child walks fine but still needs PT for low muscle tone? How did you know s/he had low muscle tone? My pediatrician never mentioned that and it's not something I would think she has, but maybe I don't know what to look for. She can get up on all fours, she just doesn't crawl like that; she flattens back out onto her belly when she wants to go somewhere. [/quote]
