crawls well
A
6 months
B
8 months
C
10 months
D
None of the above
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Most 10-month-olds can crawl well on their hands and knees, but don’t worry if your baby is not crawling just yet. Some babies never learn to crawl; they just move straight on to walking. By now, your baby is probably sitting confidently and may be able to walk around while holding onto furniture (called ‘cruising’).

Detailed explanation-2: -Many babies learn to crawl sometime between 7 months and 10 months. But as every baby is unique, your little one might be on the move earlier or later than others. Some babies skip the crawling stage altogether. Keep in mind that all babies grow and develop at their own pace.

Detailed explanation-3: -Most babies this age can feed themselves finger foods, grasping items between the thumb and forefinger. They might also be able to use a spoon. Your baby might delight in banging blocks together, placing objects in a container and taking them out, as well as poking things with a finger. Evolving language.

Detailed explanation-4: -If parents notice that their child has not started crawling after a while, they should take the child to his or her pediatrician. While this is not always something that moms and dads should worry about, it can also be a sign that the little one has some kind of developmental disorder, such as cerebral palsy.
