CRAWLING AT 21 MONTHS
Hi Stella,
My daughter is 21 months, she crawls, but can't walk. Three weeks ago ,i forced her to stand up, she stood up and wanted to take a step, but she fell down and started crying. She started school in January, I'm really worried. Thank you.
Poster you should be praying for her than getting worried, relax she will start walking soonest.
ReplyDeletePls get her a walker...it helps greatly
DeleteWalker are not good for babies legs and have been banned in many countries. A little research will explain why in detail.
DeleteDnt be worried madam...she will walk soon
ReplyDeleteIndeed you need to be worried but God will take total control, 1yr9mnths? The Lord is your strenth and she will walk this month by his grace

Take her to d doctors for cross examination. If the doctors say she is okay then u have nothing to fear, bear in mind that every body system is different so she might have a slow system
ReplyDeleteYou said my mind
DeleteHer nerve response to the leg need to be checked. Take her to a pediatrician
DeletePlease take her to the hospital.. .let her be examine to put your mind at rest.
ReplyDeleteMadam you should be worried!...something is not right...
ReplyDeleteShe need a medical expert in this case...her own don pass be careful!...
This is serious
ReplyDeletePraise God for u 2dy no useless comment
DeleteThat is to say, She would b 2yrs in 3mnths time.. madam try n help her, mayb u should hold her hands and walk wit her.
ReplyDeleteLate bloomer?
ReplyDeleteIt's boomer. And it has nothing to do with things like this. Wiki is ur friend
DeleteErmm its actually bloomer
Deleteactually, it's bloomer as Falz's wife wrote. But that can only be said after everything else is excluded.
DeleteIn my opinion (as a medical student), the child should see a paediatrician. Heart problems (making the toddler constantly tired), Neurological problems (How has the child's development been so far besides this? does she speak/play well? potty training? How was she delivered? Was there anything abnormal during delivery?
please dont answer these questions here. Think of the answers and tell a good paediatrician.
Pls do panty-liners cause toilet infection? I treated it 2weeks back and but I've been wondering how I could have been infected. Cos I don't share toilets and my hygiene is top notch too. But it hit me today as I used panty-liner after my period and as far as I remember, that's the only foreign thing I introduced into my Vjay of recent. I need explanations.
ReplyDeleteUr man is re-infecting you.
DeleteConstant use of panty liners especially the scented ones can predispose you to infections
DeleteYes it does
DeleteBefore you advice ladies to insert garlic into their vaginas, please google and read up on garlic burns. It's a very powerful and dangerous thing. It causes serious burns. What if it burns the vagina? That could be a reason why you are always itchy. Garlic is dangerouS
ReplyDeleteU shld be worried sis, except u have earlier taken her to a pediatrician n u re tld not to b worried. If nt, be worried n take her to d hospital
ReplyDeleteIt is normal, she will walk with time
ReplyDeleteNormal ke, at almost 2years

ReplyDeletePlease take her to the hospital
ReplyDeleteShe is afraid. If it is in the village, they will just dig hole and put her there. They will just cover the leg with sand and ask her to come out of it.
ReplyDeleteDont force her. She will walk very soon. Be happy.
My brother took more than 2 years before he walked
Waoh
DeleteOh yea,im told my grandma did that to me,i didn't walk till I was 2years!
DeleteIs 21 months not 2 years minus 3 months? ... Madam take her to the hospital... She should be walking by now....
ReplyDeleteUse any type of massage oil and massage her from spinal cord down to her waist all the way to her feet and toes
ReplyDeleteAlso buy her a walker
Eeehhm how can a child starts school @2 years? Nigerian education system is so confusing Na wa oo
How old should they start school.?? My son started at 1yr and 4 months
Deletemy baby sister walked on her 2nd birthday,she has a frail stature due to the health issue she has, she will be 11 this year and she can run for africa. just be relaxed she will walk.
ReplyDeleteSome kids are slow, but you have to see a doctor to be sure all is well
ReplyDeleteAdd more calcium to your baby's diet,get her a walker. If you're worried,see a doctor. All will be well by God's grace.
ReplyDeleteGive her time, my mum said when my younger sister was a baby that she couldn't walk till she took her to the village and my grandma dug a hole and put her inside for some hours so her legs can be strong on the ground and it wasn't long before she started walking.hope it will help
ReplyDeleteI remembered when I witnessed this at my place. It's always some very bad ass women that can perform this procedure coz they baby will like he is about to die.
DeleteShe would walk. Help her walk by holding her hand while you are walking in her house. She is scared of taking that big step alone and needs mommy to show her that it's okay to take it a step at a time. Hold her hand and walk with her within the house every 1 to 2 hours and cheer her. My little brother and sister had the same issue. I always held their hands and walked with them and within 3weeks they could walk on their own a bit.
ReplyDeleteShe'll walk, maybe slow development. Still inform a paedia.
ReplyDeleteShe's almost 2 and crawling??
ReplyDeletePlease take her to the hospital so they can check her very well to be sure her bones are fine.. She should be standing very well by now and even walking. Most kids walk from 9months. Women walk faster than men.
At most a child should be walking at 1yrs and 3 months. Please take her to the hospital now unless you didn't you didn't mean 21 months
I disagree wt most of ur statements, fab mum.kids are different,even those from the same mum.yes,some kids walk as early as 9months whereas some walk as late as 2yrs.I agree she shld take her to the Hosp to be checked,but if she has done that and has been told no problem,then she shldnt worry,d girl WL walk.it could be familial,she shld confirm from both families.
DeleteMy kids don't walk till 18- 20months and now I have to be begging dem to walk and not run at all times.
Madam,assist her with a walker and hold her hand to walk around d house,she WL soon walk on her own
Iro nla, not most babies walk @ 9mnths o, some walk btw 1yr and thereabout, infact my son started walking exactly on his 1yr birthday. Kids grow differently so therefore u can't compare all, and babies born prematurely take long to catch up with those that were born full term. Pls take her for proper examination ok, wish u well
DeleteTake her to d hospital 2 b sure.if she is ok,then u don't hav 2 b worried. Children cm in diff ways. It's not 2 late. Just hop on God she wil walk
DeleteNa wa o
ReplyDeleteMaybe her bones are week
Weak not week
DeleteSee a pedestrian nurse or doctor
ReplyDeleteCyclist nurse or doctor no?
DeletePedestrian nurse kwa?Okada abi barrow pusher nurse nko?kikikikiki.
DeleteYes or bridge doctor
DeleteIt is well. She would walk. Maybe its fear. Or she could be overweight BT I would suggest you see a doc. My child is already standing by himself and he is just 7months old. I would be worried if I was in ur shoes thou.
ReplyDeleteShe is just scared.
ReplyDeleteI guess she is ur first and doesn't see other kids.
By the time other kids ll deal with her at school, she ll walk. Thats if the teacher allows it.
See a doctor as well to be sure that her bones are ok.
Shuuu people with question self,mtcheww
ReplyDeleteYour baby is a year and 9 months. Yes you should be very worried. Please take that child immediately to the hospital or at least a children's health care centre. You should only relax if the doctors say the child is okay.
ReplyDeleteHave you taken her to the hospital to find out why? At almost 2 years, it should be worrying. Get a professional opinion
ReplyDelete21 months? Madam you should be worried oh
ReplyDeleteSince she can stand then she will definitely walk. Keep praying for her, God will perfect it
ReplyDelete21months still crawling??..hmmm Y did u wait ds long poster. Pls take that child to a specialist for proper examination. Her crying wenever u make effort shows something is wrong somewhere. Any pediatrician around you? It is well with ur baby girl poster...
ReplyDeleteShe will walk soon ijn.
ReplyDeleteDon't worry, she'll walk.
ReplyDeleteBut her toys that aides walking. Pele
My niece Walked at a year and 8 months. We didn't stress over it, it just happened while her younger bro walked at 8 months, you see? That's life. She's 4 now, beautiful, smart and adorable
ReplyDeleteTake her to the hospital,Just in case there's a problem, don't force her or scold her when she refuses to walk and keep praying for her..
ReplyDeleteJust wondering how she would manage sxhool
ReplyDeleteJust wondering how she would manage sxhool
ReplyDeleteYes. That's almost 2 years. Please see a pediatrician.
ReplyDeleteMadam please be worried. Your child is almost 2yrs for christ sake and she still can't work. Please carry her to hospital before her leg stiffs.where is your mother or mother inlaw? I'm sure that's your first born. Please do something fast. May God speak to that leg
ReplyDeleteIt's walk not work. Illiterate
DeleteShe has more than 80% of her lifetime to walk, please relax. She will still walk..
ReplyDeleteCan she stand on her own? Does she walk with support? If she does, no need to worry, she will walk when she's ready. Some kids are quite slower than others.
ReplyDeleteIf still want to speed up the process, let a carpenter make you a walker. That's what parents used back in the day
At 21 months that is 2yrs? Stella she should be worried.
ReplyDeleteAt 2yrs, your daughter should be walking by now. She lacks calcium.
You need to see a doctor Asap.
It is well with you. Be strong.
Tell the doctor to run some text most especially vitamin D
ReplyDeletePlease take her to the hospital,at 21 months (almost 2yrs) she should be walking but if the doctors satisfy her ok then worry not.Some kids can be very slow with development, my kid sister at 5yrs was still talking like a baby but now she can argue for Africa n represents her course mate in team work presentation.
ReplyDeleteTake your child to a Paediatrician.Let him check the child of any abnormality and if there is need for a referral to another expert,same will be done.Don't sit there and be worried ' Do something' at list to satisfy that part. In another way,some children are like that and they walk when their time reach.
ReplyDeletesome kids are just naturally late. Your baby will walk! like others have said you need to help her walk. Buy her a walk, walk with her and don't carry her often. My daughter is 2.5 years. only says few words and cant even make a sentence. I was worried at first then I assured myself that she would take when she's ready. my friend's son started talking properly at 3 yrs so it is what it is...keep calm mama everything will be fine, but if you are still worried it wont hurt to take her to the pediatrician to get checked. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteMy friend's tod has not talked since he was born. She's been to hospitals, churches etc. They keep saying he would still talk but nothing. He doesn't make any of those sound dumb pple make but he just hasn't talked and He would be 4 this year.
ReplyDeleteDear,what will your being worried do? God gave you that baby.Commit the baby unto her creator. By the grace of God she will walk. Give her food rich in calcium eg egg,well cooked liver,oka baba ogi,alaran fish,enough crayfish. It is well,mummy
ReplyDeletedear poster,
ReplyDeleteMy neighbor had such issue with her daughter, 2years and her daughter was not walking.
unfortunately she didn't know her daughter was supposed to have 'dada' hair but she cut her daughter hair after 4months so it affected her physically. so ill advice u watch our for any traits or anything she reacts to. also be prayerful, encourage your daughter always in walking and always prophesy positive in her life.
My dear all kids are not d same...some are very fsst and action while some are not...a friend of mine have d same issue with her child....her daughter was almost 2yrs b4 she could walk. ......
ReplyDeleteMadame put your mind at rest she will still walk, get her a walker and always hold her hands to walk around.
ReplyDeletePoster, at 21months and not walking,its certainly enough to worry about. Take her to see a paediatrician and let them examine her. You can also visit a 2nd hospital just to get a 2nd opinion from anoda doctor.
ReplyDeleteOn your own,hold her hands and walk with her a little. Get a walker to assist her too. Make sure you put her very often on the ground too.
Don't forget to commit it into God's hands. Some children walk late while others walk early. Each child with his own. It is well with her.
The main thing here is to take her to a doctor and also pray. Every morning rub anointing oil on the leg and say "my daughter you were not born to be cripple stand up and walk". And never be angry with her for not walking, don't listen to anybody and DON'T go fetish no matter what. God still answers prayers
