Mom of a 5 yr 9 m old girl4 years ago

Q.

#asktheexpert My baby gal still scoots on her bum. She can stand while holding on the table or bed but when it comes to move around she prefers going around on her bum. She is 1.2 months old. We try holding her hands and help her walk but she gets tired of it and starts scooting. What can I do to help her walk on her legs.

A. kindly meet your doctor to rule out nutritional deficiency in your child and usually walking without support will come maximum by 18 months of age and till that time there is no need to worry just take care of regular diet and baby massage

A. Hello mom Every baby development cycle is different. Some babies cross milestones early and some takes time. You should not worry just massage your baby is legs properly at least twice a day for next few months. It will give you strength to babies muscles and bones. If baby doesn’t start walking when she turns 14 months old then consult with your paediatrician.
