A. a baby will start Sitting with support by 6 months of age and by 7 to 8 months baby will sit without support than by 9 months usually baby crawls and in 10 months baby will stand with support. After 12 to 15 months baby will start Walking independently and sometimes it may take even longer but in no case any Walker should be avoided as it can cause recurrent fall injury and delay in the walking because the child lacks confidence ottf walking independently.

A. baby is trying to achieve her next milestone beautiful, this is normal babies try to stand with support of furniture, if there is no one in the home to look out the baby then yes you can give walker otherwise i advise you to avoid giving walker .
