3 Reasons Why Your Baby is Not Pulling Up To Stand

I had a call with a worried mom this week whose 10-month-old was perfectly happy on the floor but hadn't made the move to stand. She felt like she was missing something vital.

Here is the secret: Pulling to stand isn’t just about leg strength. It’s a complex "symphony" of movement. When I troubleshoot this, I check:

Core Stability: Can they transition from sitting to all fours easily?

Grip & Reach: Are they motivated to reach up rather than just out?

Weight Shifting: Can they shift their weight onto one knee?

If your baby isn't there yet, don't panic. Check these foundations first.
