A. walking with support will come any time between 9 months to 15 months of age. walking without support will come maximum by 18 months of age so before that there is no need to worry and you have to just continue regular diet of the child( food made from cereals pulses fruits veggies milk) as well as baby massage and regular massage will also help in improving the muscle strength which will help in walking. regular encouragement for the child to walk you may wait for one more month and after that you can visit the doctor for delay in milestone

A. Now it would be actually a little delay and a child is meant to learn to walk independently between the age of 12 to 17 months now I would just suggest you to consult your doctor it may just be that your child is not very confident to walk independently but better to be sure about it after getting a check up done
