[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I asked a similar question a few months ago and someone posted this: http://motordelay.aap.org

It was VERY helpful. The general consensus is that if your baby can sit and is making progress (however slow) then they will walk. [/quote]

This was my son. The ped wanted him evaluated at his 9 month appt, so we did, but didn't follow up with PT. He was constantly progressing, but just a lot more slowly than the rest of my kids, and he walked about 3 months later than everyone else.[/quote]

PP here. Thanks for the info. We did do a PT visit, mostly because I wanted to know what I should or shouldn't be doing to help him (should I stand him up? exercises, etc?) We got some ideas and are working on building his core. He was "late" to sit, so I expect him to just take his time with everything else. It's just SO hard when his peers are basically walking on their own! [/quote]

I'm 13:27. Would you mind sharing what you're doing for his core? [/quote]
