My 9 month old slides/crawls backwards, anyone else's baby do this?

She first walked backwards in her walker, then learned how to go forwards in it. I was wondering if this was sometimes the same for crawling? She pushes herself backwards while trying to crawl. Anyone else's baby do this?

    Yes this is normal. They don't always crawl. Sometimes they skip crawling and go straight to walking. Sometimes they roll to get from one place to another. Its ok. They all end up walking in the end and get into things they shouldn't. ;)

    My daughter went backwards for a couple weeks before she went forward. She was always backing herself under the kitchen table.
