Your walking baby
Learning to walk is a key milestone in your baby's life.
Over your baby's first year he or she will learn to sit, roll, crawl, pull up onto the furniture and stand.
Most babies take their first steps between nine and thirteen months. However do not worry if your child does not walk until the sixteenth or seventeenth month, this is still perfectly normal.
At about eight months your baby will probably start pulling him or herself up whilst holding onto furniture. If you hold him or her near a piece of furniture, to begin with, he or she will hang on, but after a few weeks your baby will begin to move around whilst holding onto the furniture, known as 'cruising'.
At about nine or ten months your baby will begin to learn how to bend at the knees and how to sit after standing.
At eleven months your baby will have mastered standing solo, stopping and squatting, but will not take his or her first steps for a few weeks.
At thirteen months most toddlers are walking on their own, however it is genetics and environment that determine when your baby will take his or her first steps.
By eighteen months your baby should be a proficient walker. Many can get up stairs with help and may try to kick a ball.
At twenty five months or so your child's steps will be more even and he or she will get better at jumping.
