Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 5 m old boy1 Year ago

A. it is not advisable to use walker for children because many times the child may fall from it causing grievous injury. it does not help in any growth milestones of the child and many times can cause delay in the walking milestone of the child. the child doesn't learn to walk because the child feels that they have to move around in the walker itself so will not make an attempt to walk push walker can be used but walker in which child sits in centre needs to be avoided walking with support will come any time between 9 months to 15 months of age. walking without support will come maximum by 18 months of age so before that there is no need to worry and you have to just continue regular diet of the child( food made from cereals pulses fruits veggies milk) as well as baby madssage and regular massage will also help in improving the muscle strength which will help in walking. regular encouragement for the child to walk
