Detailed explanation-1: -Your baby’s first steps could come as early as 8 months or as late as halfway through their second year of life. But you’ll have plenty of warning when it’s coming, because your baby will have been cruising and trying to balance for a while.
Detailed explanation-2: -Yes. Babies learn to walk any time between 10 months and 18 months. At around 10 months or 11 months, lots of babies start walking while holding someone’s hands or gripping the furniture. Most babies take their first steps on their own by their first birthday although many can take longer to reach this milestone.
Detailed explanation-3: -As with all things development, your baby will start walking on their own individual timeline. You can help your little one move and groove no matter what stage your baby is at with walking. But the keyword here is stage. Babies don’t go from sitting to walking overnight.
Detailed explanation-4: -Parents often think babies should walk independently by 12 months, but anywhere between nine and 18 months is considered within the completely normal range, says Elizabeth Zahary, a paediatric physiotherapist in Edmonton.
