Meaghan addresses the misconception that crawling is not a necessary developmental milestone. She critiques recent changes by the CDC and AAP that removed crawling from the Learn the Signs, Act Early program's developmental milestones. Learn why crawling plays a vital role in neural development, connecting the left and right hemispheres of the brain, and enhancing emotional regulation, decision-making, and social skills. Meaghan explains the negative impact of skipping crawling and gives insights into why some babies might struggle to crawl; discomfort, low muscle tone, and inadequate practice of necessary reflexes.
