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 th e walking becauvse the child lacks confidence of walking independently.

A. Babies start taking steps around 9 to 12 months and walk independently around 14 to 15 months. But some perfectly normal babies may be slow in walking and walk independently only around 16 to 18 months. This is common. And u need not worry. Don't force the child to walk alone it will only terrify the child. Keep encouraging the child. Let her hold something and walk slowly she will start walking independently on her own. Some kids may reach such milestones with a delay which is quite natural and normal.
