POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy1 Year agoA. Babies typically start walking independently between 9 and 18 months of age. However, the exact timing can vary widely among individual children. Some signs that your baby may be ready to start walking include:
1. **Pulling to Stand:** If your baby can pull themselves up to a standing position while holding onto furniture or your hands.
2. **Cruising:** Walking while holding onto furniture for support.
3. **Standing Unassisted:** Being able to stand without holding onto anything, even if just for a few seconds.
4. **Taking Steps:** Starting to take steps independently, even if they are unsteady.
Since your baby is already 17 months old, they might be close to walking independently if they haven't started already. If you have any concerns about your baby's development, it is always a good idea to consult with your pediatrician.
