To early to walk?

Question

My baby is 3.5 months and always is trying to stand and walk (if your holding her hands )...how long should I wait before putting her in a stationary walker or push toy ? ....she started everything early ..
Rolling onto stomachs at 2 weeks , teething 2.5 months , pushing off at 1 month .sitting up at 3 months ... so should I wait to assist her in walking ? She prefers standing rather than sitting

Answer

Walkers aren’t recommended anymore. Push walkers are okay once baby can walk. The best thing for baby’s physical development is to be able to play on the floor and freely move around.

Answer

From the NHS-

Answer

This is very common. It’s called the stepping reflex. I would let her naturally learn herself. Babies start pulling up to stand on their own first before they begin cruising around furniture and using a push walker. Most babies (not all) will start to crawl first as well.

Answer

You can put her in a Walker once shes able to hold her head up and have a little bit more control over her body. Or else she will be bopping around in the seat lol. Also I wouldn't say it's too early but I wouldn't do it often. Her legs are still developing. So I would start with a jumper or Walker and let her gain the strength before you try pushing to walk.

Answer

I had my baby at 4 months showing her how to pull herself up and standing against things like the couch so that her legs coukd build enough strength to support herself.

Answer

If she has the control to be in it. Go for it. You know if baby is ready or not. As long as she can hold her head and stuff I don’t see what it could hurt. Oh my son in a stand up bouncer at three months. He was ready. Every child is different.

Answer

Probably. Babies can be early learners, my 3rd born ( middle child) rolled over at front to back and back to front at 3 months, crawled at 5 month’s, and walked at 9 months. But she was my earliest for everything.
