commando crawl
arrastar-se à comando (do exército)


Explanation:
Consider, for example, the "commando crawl," where the baby puts his elbows on the floor and keeps his legs flat as he drags himself forward as though under enemy fire.

commando crawl
gatinhar [à comando]


Explanation:
em Portugal dizemos gatinhar, mas nunca ouvi a expressão de gatinhar "à comando". pode ser apropriada pois alguns bebés começam a arrastar-se antes de gatinhar propriamente. como outras pessoas disseram aqui é um tipo de gatinhar em que o bebé não chega a levantar o tronco, daí o paralelismo com os exrecícios dos comandos do exército quando se têm que arrastar no chão.
