Help Your Child Learn Walking Skills At Home! 

My son is 1y and almost 5 months and he is still not walking alone. Don't worry

Thats how i feel with my 14 month old i even get jealous. His baby cousin is 2 weeks younger then him she already walks and even is starting to say world. His dad just tells me not to rush him i just get worried.

my son is 13 months and can get everywhere he wants just wont take that 2nd step before flopping his butt to the ground.

@@brandonboudreau770 my son is 15 months he just started walking 2 wks ago. Now he is walking every where he can doesn't want me to grab his hand or nothing. It takes time but you'll see he'll get there.

My son turned 1 in December and is not walking yet. You're not alone Mama.

Exactly the same!!

Same here

Same here My son is 16mo old Any suggestions?? He is walking with support since 9mo.. not progressing to independent walking

@@vigneshrs5806 she’s finally walking, almost a week after I left this comment. And she took off. Honestly just keep trying and providing open space for him to practice. That’s what ultimately we stuck with.

How old was she when she started trying to walk?? (Mine is 14 months, he collapses his legs when I try, yet he can do everything else)

Same. Mine won’t even pull himself up. He can get into crawling position but won’t crawl

​@@missmamas7017 is your child walking yet?

@@kbm124 no but trying to. Trying to pull himself up more, he’s standing up holding on to things.

How is your child now ?

I’m glad she said 18 months! Bc my son is 14 months old&still not walking on his own.

Exactly what my baby is doing he is 15 months.

I will say this is helpful for me but you have to be safe doing it. Lol may not be great idea but I got my daughter encouraged to stand since she was like 9months from taking pictures. I stayed close by and started off with objects behind her to lean on then afterwards by herself she started doing on her own. 😊

Same, my son is almost 15 months and it's the same. What happened to you? Did she start walking?

@gabrielazlateva8336 I'm not sure if this helps but my daughter just starting walking at home independently by herself literally 4 days before turning 15months. They will get there only get concerned after 18months.

@gabrielazlateva8336 to add, just let child explore safely around house that is baby proof and the more curious they become the more they want to get up and move more of those muscles in them legs to get to what they want.

Mine as well 🤔

Good to hear that her legs are nice and strong! In terms of keeping her motivated, it's going to be different for every baby. If there is something that she shows sustained interest in, like a TV show or interacting with someone else in the room, you can incorporate that into your practice.

You took the words out of my mouth. My son does all of the actions off the checklist but it's the confidence within himself..how is your daughter doing and do you have any tips

Hey ​@conciousgrein8093 ! Weirdly enough, the day i posted this comment, she took her first steps! And now she is literally trying to run. 😂

My twins girl are of 15 months and they are also not standing independently I m much worried.

@@PujaPaulDash Keep me posted on her journey

Is he walking now

Have you got any idea? My baby is also afraid to walk independently.

Same here 16mo child

The average age for independent walking is 12 - 18 months, so it sounds like your child is still on track to walk independently in that time frame. Femur fractures can impact future standing and walking skills or could make her more cautious with independent movement. In addition to the activities in the video, you can also try having her stand and hold a soft toy that you also hold. That might give her more confidence while still being a challenge. If you are not seeing progress in the next 1-2 months a PT evaluation might be beneficial. Hope this helps!

This is normal and not to worry. Place objects in front knee level to get her encouraged. I was concerned when my child did this. You also have to make sure child has correct walking shoes while teaching 😊. They will progress at different levels as time go on.

Every child moves at their own pace. If you're seeing readiness signs and progress, give it some time. If you still have concerns after a few more months, maybe consider reaching out to a pediatric PT.

@@emergepediatrictherapy Thank you! Just since I posted that question a week and a half ago, he started standing longer on his own (up to and over 10 seconds) and now takes a few steps (2-5) by himself here and there too! Does that sound like good progress?

Yes! That's awesome!@@user-dh2ci8cl8d

I want to know this too

No, some kids learn that as they go. Others do it prior to walking.

It would be expected that a child can transition to standing independently (either through pull to stand at a surface or by standing independently from the floor or a squat to stand from a low surface/parent lap) before they start taking independent steps. It is important that children can access a position by some means before they are able to completely master that skill. Children typically master pulling to stand at a surface as their first method of attaining standing.

@Shabnamrajani6172 Some kids are just bit delayed don't worry. Do leg massage and leg exercises with your child. My twins are 26months and are NOT independently walking I'm so CONCERNED. I was told twins develope different then single child. I don't understand why and how does that work? I NEED a video on twins/multiple children growth and development video.

13 months?

It’s is normal my child is going through the thing it’s normal he just not real best thing to do it’s just give them alil more time he will get there it’s just still new to him

​@@2lovingmoms my baby is not walking also but cruise all the time he has the history of epileptic fits but he is doing everything normally but walking is delayed can it be cause of epilepsy

@@hirababar8417 no it has nothing to do with that many kids have a fear of balance so if they stand by holding onto some thing and their balance is OK try using a toy that is a walker to see if your child can move it on their own place. Your child’s hands on the bars make sure their feet are straight and see if they go start by letting them stand and walk with them 2 inches and let them try to do the rest

@@2lovingmoms yes he can use push walker and maintain his balance but he is been doing it for 6 months but not stepping for a walk seems like he is scared but I sometimes think he might got some issue with his motor neurons .he is having issue with his hands also don't use his to bring anything to eat towards his mouth .

@@hirababar8417 do u have Snapchat

Even mine doesn't,😢my MIL says he is late n his legs are not strong, despite him being allover climbing up and down the couches

Is he walking yet? My son is 14 months now and still isn’t walking independently

Let them it's part of the progress of them learning to walk. Set up toy objects they enjoy to grab at knee level to encourage them to stand up and walk.

My baby's already too independent. She "doesnt need help" &: gets so frustrated w/ herself if results aren't fast enough. Yeah, that's my babes 🥴. I tried doing the let her stand on my feet while walking and holding her hand. She didn't like it. None of her devices, would rather climb up things than use them for assistance. I had to put the Roku up high bc she's also destructive & super curious. Which is cute & fine but also twrrifys me bc she's already a little daredevil. But the standing for long thing against something, yeah when she wants to watch TV from like 1 ft away. Prob contemplating how she's ever gonna reach that blinking light thing. & Shes still sweet & clingy. Way too clingy but the only time she's holding my finger is when she's killing it bc when she sleeps I have to too. It's her screaming that bugs me. I feel like I'm losing my hearing

How is your boy now? Is he stands now
