Ciao ,

Crawling means they are on all fours. Tummy OFF the floor and " crawling " on

hands and knes.

hi all!

I have a problem with translation, when you write: " my son crawls " , do you

mean that he moves like a snake on the ground (i.e. with is stomac on the

floor) or that he moves like a cat (i.e. on his knees like)?

thanks

Hi - speaking for myself, I refer to crawling when the baby is on

hands and knees (or a variation of that) and like a cat, as you say.

I would call the other (snake) position " creeping " . I hope this helps

you!

grazie!

my vocabulary doesn't translate correctly.

however, in italian to crawl = gattonare (from gatto = cat) and to

creep = strisciare (from striscia = stripe)

Lorenzo creeps going backwards and only from a few days he creeps

goging ahead in the hour he doesn't wear the FAB. he can stay like a

cat, but he hasn't been able to move yet.

I can't immagine how he'll crawl with the FAB on, could you describe

to me? how does he move the knees?

ciao e grazie

- You'll be surprised how fast he'll crawl in the FAB! Lucas is

very fast in his. He just swings his feet back and forth. Try moving

his legs around while he's in the FAB and you'll be able to see how

it works. The FAB doesn't slow them down at all!

Have a look at this:

I guess it isn't as hard as we think!
