Dear Donna,

WHen we were creeping today I was wondering whether Sebastian is creeping in cross pattern. As I do not have my filmcamera here I can not film him when he creeps. Does the right hand and the left knee have to touch the floor the same time or is it ok and normal if the hand touches the hand a bit before the knee touches the floor? In the latter case sometimes it looks like a homolateral creep. Crawling he is doing in cross pattern and he is doing it well.
I wonder whether you or anybody else would have a short film spot of a child which creeps well and if you could send it to me via this forum.
Thanks so much in advance,

Best regards,

Iris,

The right arm and left leg should move forward together--they may be a bit off when they hit the ground, but it should be close.

My video camera is not digital Sad

so I can't post a video of Dawson creeping. If I get a chance, though, I will.

Hope this helps clarify a little.

hi donna,
i was wondering if you could comment on my daughter's c/c form. we have been doing the program since sept. 08 mainly for her stuttering problem and i have seen major improvements in her fluency. i had read in one of the posts some time ago that to really see an imporvement the program must be implemented for at least 20 weeks. after this time, how long does one need to continue the program to solidify the new "brain pattern" no order to not back track? i can't seem to post the video on the forum so i'll try to send it to your email and see if it works. thanks.
