POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy1 Year agoA. It's common for babies to start walking independently between 9 to 18 months, with some babies taking longer than others. At 13 months, it's perfectly normal for your baby to be standing with support but not yet walking independently. Here are a few things you can consider:
1. **Encouragement**: Continue to encourage your baby to practice standing and taking steps with support. Use stable furniture or your hands to help them balance and move around.
2. **Floor Play**: Provide plenty of floor play time, as crawling and exploring on their own can strengthen their leg muscles and improve their balance.
3. **Development Milestones**: Monitor other developmental milestones such as crawling, sitting up, and pulling to stand, which are important precursors to walking.
4. **Consult Your Pediatrician**: If you have concerns about your baby's motor development or if they haven't started walking independently by 18 months, it's a good idea to discuss it with your pediatrician for personalized advice and reassurance.
