My little guy was around 14 months when he started standing on his own and walking. Stay patient!Lookin good! When did he start standing on his own?
Little one is almost 13 months, still waiting for her to stand and take off tho! View attachment 14928
Mine is 18 months, and started standing up on her own at around 10-11 months, I believe. She didn't start walking until 13.5 months - took it easy going to that next step. Now she damn near runs.Lookin good! When did he start standing on his own?

Mine is ten months old and hasn’t even cut teeth yet. There are kids younger than her in her daycare class that are already standing and walking, too.My little girl was born 10 weeks early (born in June 2022, but due August) and was in the two different NICUs and a cardiac unit for 53 days before she came home. She's adjusted to an 8 month old now and just seeing all these pictures and stories has made me smile. We're worried about her mobility (long story), but seeing that you guys all have different ages when your kids crawled, stood and walked has been encouraging. Hoping she joins this bunch and is walking around and cheering on the Cavs with me.

Meanwhile, she already knows how to wave at people, something I’m told she’s about two months ahead of schedule on.
Kids develop on their own schedules, even if they tend to be in the same ballpark. It gets a lot easier once you learn and accept that - something that took me a little while myself.
Amen to that! I've been a bit concerned about my dude's late gesturing, but I'll see what his pediatrician thinks next week. I'm just glad he's finally imitating waves a lot. The sources I've read indicate that pointing usually emerges between 9 and 15 months, but isn't really cause for concern unless they're not doing it by 18. I did have to fill out a questionnaire for his upcoming visit that asked about it, though, and I had to reply that he's not doing it yet.Mine is ten months old and hasn’t even cut teeth yet.

One thing that helps--from the earliest age, when she couldn't talk, I asked her to point. I'd pick her up and even though I knew where she wanted to go, I'd ask if she could point.Amen to that!

I hear ya. I’m a first time parent here just embracing the highs and lows. Mine isn’t standing yet but I feel like she could reach that point at any time, as she’s able to crawl up on us and get up on her knees. It’s really awesome to see her little personality start to develop, too!That's great to hear. The OT that visits for early intervention has noticed that our daughter has done some stuff early and some late. Getting too focused on hitting certain milestones for a specific window definitely stressed me out. I'm just trying to have fun with her and watch her grow.
My youngest was 6 weeks early and didn't come home until his original birthday. Has Downs and some cardiac abnormalities but nothing that requires surgery this young thankfully. Coming up on his 1st birthday, he's just now crawling but still working on cutting teeth. Other than that, hes just about on target for most of his developmental goals based on adjusted age. Each kid develops at their own pace, what matters is that they keep moving forward.My little girl was born 10 weeks early (born in June 2022, but due August) and was in the two different NICUs and a cardiac unit for 53 days before she came home.
