SUBJECT: Is baby too flexible?
My almost 1-year old daughter seems exessively flexible - she sits in a "split" all the time and her leg muscles seem floppy. She walked and pulled up at 8 months and can cruise while holding on to something but cannot stand unassisted nor does she show any interest in walking.

I feel like I haven't seen any progress in the last few months. When I hold other babies her age, their legs seem much "stiffer" and sturdier. Should I be worried?

Alex
