Tiptoe Walking - Online Continuing Medical Education with the Master of Pediatrics CME Conference
"Surprisingly enough, there were a couple of researchers and one of them, Dr. Sutherland in L.A. found that there is a brief period of time where children may tip-toe intermittently, and it would be considered normal for that brief period of time right when children first start to walk up until maybe just after 2 years of age. After that, it is no longer considered normal to walk on tip-toes bilaterally."

my fren told mi not to put bb on walker before they can walk as dat may encourage tip-toe. not sure if it's true, maybe other mommies who used walker can comment?
if i rem correctly, my mil said cannot touch bb soles? oso dunno true or not?

I think the walker thingy depends on individual? My DD was on walker @ nanny place, walks properly.. The key is not to let baby sit when they can't even reach the floor or not for long hrs? LOL.
Erm... Chams.. I touched DS soles until sianz oredi. Even tickle his soles all the time since NB.. LOL. :x
son was on walker too, sometimes tip toes while on walker but when he is able to walk on his own no more tip toe other then tt brief period. Now he dun tip toe.

haha...believe it or not, after posting here my son started to tip-toe occasionally 2 days ago.
I dun even know wat triggered it.
The only new thing I did was brought him down to walk in shoes.
Previously he was walking barefoot at home only. hmph!

My son's already 5plus and he still always tiptoe. Scold many times, talk to him nicely many times and even smack his feet many times, but he still does it. Think become a habit already, have no idea how to get him to stop it. Worse is, my inlaws are pretty pantang type and they say if the kid walk around on tiptoes means it's like got ghost or something.
