The earliest a baby has been documented to crawl is around 3 months old. This remarkable feat was achieved by a baby girl named Mia, who began crawling at just 13 weeks old.
While this is an exceptional case, most babies typically begin crawling between 6 and 10 months old. Crawling is a complex motor skill that involves coordination, strength, and balance.
Babies develop at their own pace, and there is a wide range of normal development. Some babies may skip crawling altogether and move directly to walking.
It is important to note that crawling is not a prerequisite for walking. Many babies who do not crawl will still walk at the appropriate age.
