Not Standing or Walking?

Vans18 · February 2013

Hi all,

Are there any babies that are not walking or standing on their own yet? I feel like my LO is the only one. Need words of encourangement. TIA

No walking here, either. When she does stand, she doesn't voluntarily let go. It only happens when she doesn't know what she is doing.

A little girl at our library story time just took her first steps at 15 mo and is a totally healthy baby.

Oh wow!

I dont want to rush LO, but I must admit that I would love to see him take his first steps before his bday party hehe. All we have to do is wait

Neither here. Dd pulls to a stand but won't let go. Not even couch surfing here.

This describes my DD exactly! Hang in there, I'm sure it will happen soon and when you are totally not expecting it!

Mine isn't walking and not standing on her own. She seems ahead with naming colors and objects etc but was a slow crawler and I suppose a slow walkerthey will get there!

Helen pulls herself up on anything and everything and has tried to walk (or rather move from one thing to another but seems to think that her legs will just know what to do!), but no luck yet. Her birthday isn't until the 28th, so we may have a chance, but I'm not rushing it. I'm enjoying watching her learn and progress, but dangit if I don't miss putting her in one place and knowing she'll stay there! lol

Not yet. DS didn't walk until just before 15 months. At 3, he is advanced for his age in motor skills so no need to worry.

My friends little girl didn't walk until a few months after her birthday. She is a happy and healthy kiddo. She just took a bit longer to walk.

Try not to worry. Smile

My LO isn't standing or walking on her own (but will if holding on). She also isn't saying any words that make sense (does say mama and dada but not directed to me or DH). I worry too, but we have time and I keep encouraging her so hopefully soon.

This for us too. ODS did the same and did not walk until 15 months, at which point he walked exclusively. It is totally normal, as far as I'm concerned.

This for us too. He does cruise along the couch though.

Good to know! Thanks all of the kind responses

My DS pulls himself up, but doesn't walk or stand without leaning/ holding onto something. Not worried about it though he will get there when he is good and ready.
