A. that is very normal 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 as well as baby massage and regular massage will also help in improving the muscle strength which will help in walking

A. Hello dear parent! It is a normal finding in small babies. Regularly massage your baby with Babyhug daily massage oil for better muscle flexibility and balance. Encourage your child to walk little by little. Give your child a well balanced healthy diet and keep hydrated. Good luck and take care.
