What do your babies use to pull up to stand?

Baby loves to stand but wants me to hold her up which is quite a workout. We have a sofa that is about the right height for her to cruise but I'm wondering if there are other things I could get her to encourage her to pull herself up. She constantly wants to stand now, so would be good if she could be a bit more independent

Furniture, her playpen, the door, the door frames, anything she can grab honestly, heck, she's started using the wall and just suctioning her hands or something 🤣 When she wants you to pull her up, just put her hands on the sofa and she should learn eventually

Mine has a little trolley he loves to push about which, if it's against something, he can pull himself up with, his brother also has a mini table which is the perfect height for him to pull up to and then he stands and plays with whatever big bro has out x

The sofa and her cot mine uses

Literally anything he can hold onto. We have a walker but he’s not tall enough for it yet 🤣

My baby can stand on everything sofa, cot, playpen, chest of drawers, chairs etc.. I really need to be careful around the house. She started around 8 1/2

As above but also I bought a play table from Asda which has been fab! Think it was £30 and it has lots of different things on to play with whilst stood up

Activity table that’s a toy. Other than that anything she can get her hands on, usually the sofa, gates, tv stand. Etc x
