Do not get a sit in walker they are not good for baby.

Answer

Do not use the traditional sit in walker. It encourages bad pelvis engagement and toe walking. 
Just play on the floor and let child naturally progress to pulling to stand and cruising. You can use a push walker when they start to get steady-ish.

My son started walking at 18 months but he has low muscle tone so this was to be expected and actually early for when his PT thought he would walk.

Answer

I never used a walker due to risks with them walking on their toes. I just let my boys progress naturally. My eldest started walking around 8 months, though he’d use objects around the house to help him stand and he’s try to push them starting around 6 months. The younger one was walking by 11 months. I was worried about him because he never really tried to stand on his own or attempt to walk, he’d only crawl. Then one day my boys were playing and I looked up at them and he was running! I was totally shocked.

Answer

My son crawled just before 6 months, stood at 7, but still not self walking at 11months (though he can take steps, but finds it more fun to "fall") . We don't have a walker, as other have mentioned the sit ins are not good for them. Our pediatrician also doesn't recommend walking holding their hands, baby should ballance themselves.
But we do have the push wagon and high chair that get pushed around the house. 
It doesn't matter when they start, early or late shows no long term effect. 
Let your baby progress natrually. Alot of tummy time time and play. 
Provide obstacles for them to pull up on or shuffle arround and they will do it eventually.

Answer

12 months. We didn’t use a walker.

Answer

We occasionally used a walker. The push walkers are the best. He was crawling at 5 months and walking a week before he hit 9 months.

Answer

My son used a walker multiple times a day from 5 months to 8 months. He started walking independently at 8 months he’s now almost 11 months and practically runs around! Ultimately it’s your choice and they’ll walk only when they’re ready.

Answer

We always heard walkers aren’t good for little ones so we didn’t use one.
