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 12y 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 injurfy and delay in the walking because the child lacks confidence of walking independently.

A. If by completing the time of six months also you do not see proper stability into the head of the child then you can get a check with your doctor because the stability should be there by the time of six months completely and the head should not be tilting towards only one side
