My little girl has been walking for a month now. I’ve noticed that she’s been falling over quite a lot for the past few days so we booked a GP appointment. They checked her legs and hips and said she’s healthy and that it might just be a phase but I’m still worried. Is this normal? What should I do?

My little girl is 13 and a half months. Been walking since 11 months. She's also gone very wobbly and walks like she's drunk at the moment. I'm sure it's just a phase. X

It's normal for children to fall very frequently when they're learning to walk, especially as they start getting more confident and getting faster. I'd only be really concerned if you notice one side is favoured more than the other or she goes backwards in development

Did they check her ears? My little boy kept falling over and it turned out he had an ear infection in both ears so was completely messing with his balance 🥺
