POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 6 m old boy7 months agoA. It is completely normal for an 11-month, 18-day-old baby to not be standing yet. Babies develop at their own pace, and some may start standing between 9 to 12 months, while others take 13 to 15 months.
When Should You Be Concerned?
🔴 Consult a doctor if:
✔ Baby does not bear any weight on legs when held upright.
✔ No attempt to pull up using furniture or support.
✔ Very weak muscle tone or stiff legs.
✔ No crawling or attempts to move independently.
How to Encourage Baby to Stand?
✅ Give floor time – Let baby play on the floor instead of being held too much.
✅ Use sturdy furniture – Encourage baby to pull up by placing toys on a low table.
✅ Encourage crawling – Helps strengthen leg muscles.
✅ Barefoot practice – Helps improve balance and grip.
✅ Hold hands & support – Help baby stand by holding hands gently.
If baby is active, trying to move, and reaching other milestones, then there is no need to worry. Some babies take a little more time. However, if you notice stiffness, weakness, or no improvement by 14-15 months, consult a pediatrician.
