My daughter completed 2 years in feb, she's a very happy baby and also a very coperative one but my concern is

she started walking when she was 18 months old i sometimes wonder is that the reason she is a little slow in her motor activities like she doesn%26#039;t lrun around too much, she can%26#039;t clmib stairs without support whereas when i take her to that park there are kids even younger who love running around they can climb stiars on their own etc, whereas she%26#039;s more happy feeding the birds playing with flowers or sitting on the swing, she is very intelligent she loves reading and can read a book on her own, she%26#039;s very talkative and she keeps running around in the house, she loves migling with new kids and she does super yoga, but i get concerned when i look at other kids she%26#039;s petite that may be because both my husband and myself have average height, i took her to the doctor and she says its fine because her brain works way faster than she being physiaclly too active. she%26#039;s an extremely happy baby , never bothers me, she very civilised and i really have no complains at all. should i be worried.

This is way to early to be concerned. Kids develope at different stages. So her motor skills is not as advanced, no biggie. After 2, if she still doesn%26#039;t walk at ease (may still wobble at times), then maybe. THey don%26#039;t start walking like adults until about 3.
Reply:there is no need to worry hun, some kids just dont like to run around and climb things. My little one prefers to walk and take her time yet my friends baby is never still (they are both 15months).
Reply:I%26#039;m sure if there were any big worries your doctor would have mentioned something to you. I wouldn%26#039;t worry about it too much but if you are concerned about it ask your doctor on you next visit.
Reply:Her being petite isnt a concern if you and your husband are average height. She might need occupational therapy. Some pediatricians are really not concern over some things or dont have the knowledge. My son had mild autism and his ped. always said he was a late bloomer and he wasnt. Right now i get him evaluated by a developmental pediatrician and i think you should do the same if your daughter has difficulty in the motor skills areas. I see she is very bright and talks, so she might only need occupational or physical therapy. There are some schools that start talking kids at 2 , and this helps the child a lot. Just look for an early childhood center . They even evaluate the kids sometimes. Good luck!





Occupational therapy - a treatment that focuses on helping people achieve independence in all areas of their lives - can provide children with various needs with positive, fun activities to improve their cognitive, physical, and motor skills and enhance their self-esteem and sense of accomplishment.





Some people may think that occupational therapy is only for adults; children, after all, do not have occupations. But a child%26#039;s main job is playing and learning, and an occupational therapist can evaluate a child%26#039;s skills for play activities, school performance, and activities of daily living and compare them to what is developmentally appropriate for an age group.
Reply:It wouldn%26#039;t hurt to see a pediatric neurologist. My daughter was almost exactly like that, and she turned out to have a pervasive developmental disorder; if that%26#039;s the case, the sooner you discover, the sooner you take action, the better.





No tears, now; these aren%26#039;t fatal at all.
Reply:no my sister was the same way, she taught herself to walk, talk, read, go to the bathroom all by herself.
Reply:no. something about us mothers, we worry when we have nothing to worry about.
Reply:Your child sound ok, but i bet some more professional opinion is required to make a precise diagnosis. I suggest you go check up on a child psychologist and/or a physical therapist. That will clear you doubts away... And if anything is discovered, the sooner you detect it, the better the outcome.
Reply:All kids are different so it really is hard to judge. To me it seems a little off that 6 months after walking she still doesn%26#039;t climb stairs. Honestly your best course of action is to listen to the little voice inside you, if you think something is wrong fight until someone listens. If you think she is developing at the right pace for her, then let her be.
Reply:Your daughter is very intellegent and normal she just hasnt been running around much or climbing much because she just started walking. Don%26#039;t be worried,this is very normal and your daughter seems to be very smart,friendly,and cooperative.If anything you should be proud and happy with your little angel.
Reply:your daughter sounds just like my son. he started walking at 16 months, and up until he was 3 1/2 , i made him wear his bike helmet when he was playing outside. he was very clumsy, but there was nothing physically wrong with him. he is now 6, and keeps up just fine with the rest of the kids his age. all kids develop at different stages, and with different desires. sounds like your daughter enjoys absorbing her surroundings more than running around. just keep encouraging her to work on her coordination. it will all come in time.
