A. It's common for babies to start walking anywhere between 9 and 18 months, so your 13-month-old not walking yet is generally within the normal range. Every baby develops at their own pace. Some babies take a bit longer to walk, especially if they are focusing on other milestones like talking, fine motor skills, or exploring their environment in other ways. Tips to Encourage Walking: 1. Encourage standing: Help your baby stand up by holding their hands or using furniture for support. 2. Provide push toys: Push toys or walkers can motivate your baby to practice walking while holding onto something. 3. Offer safe spaces: Create a safe environment where your baby can practice cruising (walking while holding onto furniture). 4. Barefoot time: Allow your baby to walk barefoot at home to help them gain better balance and coordination. 5. Limit carrying: Let your baby move and explore on their own as much as possible. When to See a Doctor: If your baby isn’t walking by 18 months or shows other signs of developmental delays (such as not pulling to stand, crawling, or using both legs equally), it’s a good idea to consult your pediatrician for an evaluation. However, at 13 months, there’s still plenty of time for your baby to start walking!
