Babies that bum shuffled!

Orangegnome

This might seem really weird but I have read a couple of articles suggesting babies who bum shuffle instead of crawling are more likely to be autistic. I bum shuffled and didn’t walk particularly early. Just wondering if anyone else didn’t same. (by the way it’s so cute when a baby bum shuffles!)

  • I bum shuffled before I learned to crawl, I thnk lots of babies bum shuffle.

    I think birth order plays a part in how babies develop too, first children are more likely to be carried around and spoken too, so they learn speech faster than they learn walking, second babies want to follow the parents and elder sibling around, so they often learn to move, crawl or walk faster than they do to speak.

    So much more than just the early development too - I was the third and by that time my parents were really busy running their own business, dealing with 2 other kids plus a dog and for the late arriver (me) getting attention was a luxury.
