Is it normal for a six month old, to be crawing to sofa and pulling herself up to standing? I cant remember what age my boys started doing this?

There is such a wide range of "normal" right now, but yes, it is. My DD was crawling and pulling up at 6 months. And Luke has started crawling too, he just hasn't perfected it yet. Watch out, cruising won't be far behind!!

I have lazy boys. But it can be normal

yep, my BFF had an early crawler and walker, around this same age. She's probably watching her brothers and trying to keep up with them

I've heard that younger siblings learn a little faster because they are watching their older siblings and trying to keep up with them.

Mine has got a different issue...He doesn't need to move because his brother keeps bringing him things to play with

Yeah, within the range of normal! Have fun mama.

I'm glad DS hasn't figured out crawling yet. Though he's perfected his roll so well that in the blink of an eye, he's on the other side of the room. lol.

Totally "normal"! I have a friend who's baby started crawling around 4.5 months and pulling up around 5 months

. Teagan is pulling up on everything but still hasn't quite figured out how to crawl forwards. She scoots on her butt or gets down on her belly and scoots backwards to where she wants to go (and sometimes where she doesn't want to go

).
