Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Infancy is the period from birth through the completion of the 12th month of life.

Detailed explanation-2: -Try not to worry if your baby takes a little longer. Some children don’t walk until they are 17 months or 18 months old. Babies who bottom-shuffle tend to walk later than babies who crawl. As long as your baby is able to stand by 12 months and shows an interest in trying to move, you don’t have to be concerned.

Detailed explanation-3: -Some toddlers may not walk until closer to 18 months. Both are normal. In 2022, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) released new developmental guidelines. According to the new guidelines, a toddler should walk unassisted by the end of 18 months.

Detailed explanation-4: -They usually follow the stages of creeping, crawling, stepping, pulling up, and cruising, before being able to walk. Some infants crawl or cruise before they walk, while others never do either. Others walk very early in the second half of their first year, while some take much longer.
