Mine still isnā€™t walking and he was born 19th of December.. also doesnā€™t look like heā€™s going to any time soon šŸ˜… I keep being told to wait and he will do it when heā€™s ready

Mine born 25th Jan and isnā€™t walking. Just hoping she will soon!

Some just take longer, if you haven't seen it watch the baby race episode of bluey that might help you feel a little better x

I wouldnā€™t worry yet, if thereā€™s no development progress on the walking front in the next 2-3 months then Iā€™d speak to GP/HV. Every baby is different and does things at their own pace. Are they cruising/standing or doing other milestones in order?

Mine was born 5th Jan and she canā€™t walk yet either. We had a health visitor check up recently and she wasnā€™t worried since she could stand and walk with furniture. All babies have their own timeline

Mine was 19 months before she started walking. Try not to stress but if youā€™re really worried the health visitors are there for support . Is your little one pulling up ? Cruising ? Standing up alone? Walking while holding a walker or hands? If yes to any of these then there shouldnā€™t be anything wrong just a waiting game.

Definitely wouldn't worry up until 18 months and even then it may be nothing to worry about. I know it's easy to say when some start walking at 9 months! The average age for walking has recently been changed due to new stats and is now 15 months. My little boy started walking at 16 months

My January baby doesn't walk either, you are not alone ā¤ļø

My late December baby took 1 step twice a week and a half ago, on Tuesday took 3 steps at nursery and 4 at home in the evening and the same yesterday after nursery. Today she has been taking quite a few steps and seems she could have just kept going. She also suddenly climbed the stairs and came back down again for the first time ever. We hadnā€™t been worried it was taking this long because sheā€™s clearly been capable of it for a long time, sheā€™s just very risk averse. My understanding with the 18 month thing is that itā€™s only a concern if they arenā€™t showing any signs of walking, such as not even cruising furniture or able to weight bear.
