Accepted Answer

Every child is different and so as their development milestones. Babies can 5ake upto 2 years to walk without support, therefore comparing them is not correct. You can help her in walking by supporting from back or holding from both the hands. Spread around toys so that she tries to reach to them. Leave her on the floor for longer time during the day.
Also, try to control her weight as ideal weight of a 14 months baby girl should be between 10 to 12 kgs.
