My baby is 11 months old, and I'm a bit worried because they still haven't pulled themselves up to stand. Why do you think that might be? Could using baby walkers have caused a delay? When did your little ones first start pulling themselves up to stand while holding onto furniture or another support?

We didn't use a baby walker. His body adapted on its own, and he began standing and then walking at about 1 year and 3 months. That's perfectly fine — every child develops at their own pace.

My daughter started standing while holding onto something at 9 months. I'm so happy about this milestone.

I have three children; I used baby walkers for two of them when they were about eight months old (give or take).

Baby walkers can be one contributing factor, but it's not fair to blame everything on them. For example, a relative's daughter pulled herself up at about one year and began walking around 14 months — and she's perfectly fine.

At 8 months, they stood up while holding onto support; at 10.5 months, they started walking. What wonderful progress!

Your baby pulled up to stand using support at around 9 months, started walking at about 10.5 months, and began standing without support at around 11.5 months.
They also spent a lot of time in a baby walker.

My younger one started pulling herself up to stand in her crib at around 7–8 months, often rising straight up from the mattress. By about 10–11 months she was using the bed to pull herself up and getting up from the floor. She can take a few steps on her own, but mostly she seems to try to run and often cruises along walls. She'll walk when she's ready — it's not because of walkers.

Yuliya My baby seems a bit late to start walking — they're about 11 months old. Do you think using a baby walker could be the cause?

Masha Maksimova My baby is late to start walking — about 11 months old. Do you think using a baby walker could be the reason?

Yuliya I’m not worrying about it. When my body is ready, it will heal and I’ll get back on my feet.

That's wonderful — when she was developmentally ready, she started standing about two weeks ago. She has been using a walker since she was six months old.

She didn't use a baby walker. Around eight months she pulled up to stand using a support. After that she cruised along furniture with sidestepping movements. By 10.5 months she began taking careful steps while I supported her by holding her hands.

Lyubanya When our son was 10 months old, everyone told us to rush to a neurologist because he wasn't standing yet. But he started standing at about 11 months. Every child develops at their own pace — there's no need to frighten parents like that.

They all used baby walkers, and all three started walking at about 10 months. That's completely normal.

Lyubanya Our orthopedist told us when the baby was six months old that they should be walking on their own by their first birthday. I don't expect anything from my child before they're one — I won't pressure them. They don't owe anything to anyone.

Lyubanya Thank you, that reassures me. My first daughter started walking at 1 year and 2 months, my second at 10 months, and my third child didn’t stand up until 11 months. You’ve made me a little worried. Maybe my son will be a late walker too, like my first daughter, and start walking later.

Both were standing while holding onto support by six months. I didn’t use baby walkers; I consider them harmful, but they can’t stop a child’s natural development.

Lyubanya It's okay to wait until the brain and body are ready. Every child is different — developmental milestones are helpful, but not every child has to fit them. If there are real problems, they should be addressed; I'm speaking as a mother with a disability. If there aren't problems, don't go looking for them.

My baby started standing at 11 months. I never used a walker. My older child also started standing and walking later — they began walking at one year and three months and also never used a walker. That's perfectly okay; every child develops at their own pace.

Kse niya We're the same as you 🙂. The doctors never told me it was abnormal. Then, when the child was 1 year and 3 months, they said it wasn't normal. My first daughter started walking at 1 year and 2 months, and even then they kept nagging me, saying things like, 'Oh, that's late.' I know how frustrating that can be.

Kse niya It's generally considered normal for children to begin walking independently by around 18 months. Any doctor who says otherwise is likely mistaken — that doesn't sound right. If you're worried, consider getting a second opinion.

Kse niya Yes — our rural doctors keep saying a baby should already be walking by their first birthday. My little one only began to stand at about a year. It’s really frustrating, and I’m tired of their pressure.

Kse niya Please don't listen to them. Everything is within normal limits right now.
Until the brain's motor control center matures, your baby won't stand up or start walking before they're developmentally ready.
