"The baby used to walk on all fours just a week ago." is an odd sentence.
One is not sure what you are trying to say, and "used to" is generally not used for something as recent as one week ago.
What do you want to say?
A...The baby walked on all fours (until) a week ago but is not doing it now.
B...The baby started walking on all fours a week ago.
C...something else. |
