baby not walking?

Question

Anyone else’s baby not walking yet? She will be 13 months in 2 days. I keep asking everyone is she late and they all say no but I see so many babies that were born after her already walking. Am I doing something wrong? Her dad tries to force her to walk like helping her stand and she can definitely take a few steps but she prefers to crawl and be supported on a wall. She cries when he tries to MAKE her which pisses me off. she has a walker that she can push and walk and she loves it. We take her walking around our apartments a lot but she just won’t budge to get up on her own

Answer

Every baby is different. I've had 3 kids. My first took his first steps after he was 14 months old. My second was walking by 10 months and my third just turned one and is still not walking full time. They will get their in their own time. Don't force it.

Answer

My son isn’t walking yet. He’ll walk if we hold his hands (but doesn’t always want to), he’ll walk behind his walker and he’ll “cruise” the furniture. But doesn’t seem to have interest in walking alone 🤷🏼‍♀️ We’ve been working on getting him to stand without holding anything off and on for a week or so. I figure he’ll get it when he’s ready

My cousin’s baby didn’t walk until almost 14 months. Now he is running all over the place! My mom said that I walked on the later side as well. I was just perfectly content sitting in my playpen and crawling to where I needed to go. They all do things in their own time!

Answer

We had a push walker sitting in our living room for him for a few months before one day he just randomly stood up and wanted to walk behind it. It's like something clicked. I assume the same thing will happen with walking independently and am letting him go at his own pace in his own time.

Answer

Mines not walking and I am in no rush. Once they start they won’t stop and our babies won’t be little ones anymore!  Enjoy the crawling before things get really interesting 😂

Answer

It’s totally normal for her to not be walking yet.  It’s not a concern until after 18 months.  Trying to push her is just stupid imo.  She’ll get it and he needs to back off and let her.  Crawling is better for core and muscle development anyway.

Answer

Nothing to worry about at this time. Every baby is different my niece was the same she just wouldn’t walk then at about 14 or 15 months she start walking. 
ENJOY THE NO WALKING WHILE YOU CAN!! My LO started walking just before 10 months and I could’ve used a couple extra months of crawling lol.

Answer

Our son just turned 1 on the 25th. He will only take 1 step. We stand him up and encourage him but that's all. They'll get there eventually.
