Hi, I’m struggling with my 13 month little princess She’s balancing really well though She’s my first that I’m experiencing with practicing My first walked at early 9 months old and my 2nd at middle 10 months They took their steps by helping themselves Any other advices other than this video might help? Anyone have other tips?

My baby is 18 months old She never crawled and cannot get up by herself to a sitting position and neither can she stand on her own She needs support for these and she has started taking 5-6 independent steps She walks across the room from one person to the other and has fallen a few times too

My daughter CoraLena has Down Syndrome She will be 3 yrs old on March 1st She will pull to stand, play with toys on her table, cruise on furniture, use a toy walker as well as a gait trainer, and we support her by holding her ribs However, if we move our hands or any of the items that she was using, she will sit on her butt and go back to butt scooting/army crawling She will be growing out of early intervention and hopefully will be starting with an intermittent unit But, it’s getting harder for me to constantly carry her especially with having a newborn in November I’m reaching out for more support (as well as a place to just vent)
Comment from : @wildfl0wer921

It's simple, DON'T DO ITbrhelping them with any kind of touch can only interfere with their gravity games br The toy games are perfect Without physical contact / interference, the toys motivate them to explore their body on their own brAnd push walkers never existed when we were hunter-gatherers br¯\_(ツ)_/¯brAnd for more educated information, Bonnie Bainbridge Cohen of body mind centering works thoroughly through the stages of walking development

Thank you Emma, will try this out❤
Comment from : @mantleatrest

You're right that holding by the waist is better, but the problem with that is that it kills our backs We gotta think about ourselves too!

I noticed lots of the habits that babies had were also true of me when I was learning how to skate as an adult
Comment from : @Chr0m3dD347H

My baby is 12 months and doesn’t want to walk She stands on her own holding onto things but when I hold her up to help her walk, she bends her knee’s immediately and refuses to walk Help please :(
Comment from : @brendar8778

My baby is 18 months old and she stands up and walk on her own on the bed or mattress but not on the ground However, she can easily walk on ground while grabbing my one finger brWhat should we do to encourage her to standup and walk on ground independently
Comment from : @roknrol97

not sure if we should be concerned-my 19 month old grandson onky “walks” on his knees we have seen him walk on his feel once or twice so know he is able but he may be afraid of falling? he hops in his knees or uses a walking motion on his knees only

Comment from : @cmsanchez241

My daughter was certainly more confident to walk at one, than my son is at one She was walking and carrying a handbag by the age I shall utilize these means
Comment from : @GSnugg

Comment from : @patriciaumez-kenneth4551

Thanks you so much for educating me 🙏
Comment from : @AngelNails-spa

I always thought using a push walker is dangerous for babies if they can't walk yet?
Comment from : @22Harponyo

Just wanted to say thank you so much for this At 20 months we were starting to get worried (starting physical therapy etc) but the tips in this video made a huge difference After two weeks of practice holding under her arms instead of her hands she's walking as of today!
Comment from : @cxvbnmfghtrew

My 10 month old has been cruising for at least a month but when he tries on a walker he just pushes it forwards and falls over as he doesn’t move with it Is there anything I can do to help this?
Comment from : @abijames7917

Comment from : @shabnamrajani6172

My son started furniture cruising at eight months at 14 months, he is still not walking He will literally furniture and wall cruise throughout the whole house, not crawling at all, but will not let go He’s so stubborn lol
Comment from : @TravelMore0406

I just watched a physiotherapist video saying the baby pushers encourage the wrong start offs to learning to walk, it's trying to discern which is the best thing to do! Thank you !

My daughter is 14 months old and is not trying to walk Im so lost i feel like ive failed
Comment from : @leighamillman3850

The first way of 'helping' a baby to walk looks like it might put strain on the baby's arms from being held up It would also put a strain on the adult's back
Comment from : @MsGbergh

Baby's learning to walk especially 2014 me i can confirm that the walking arm adjusting and wide apart legs as true
Comment from : @Imstraightiswearguys

Baby walkers are highly discouraged by pediatricians in the US

Comment from : @nagendranagendra9480

Hi Emma my daughter is 15 months old and still not really walking brShe is climbing on things, going up the stairs on her knees and crawling and being very very active to be honest but she still not able to walk is that might be due to having a baby walker which we got rid of or should we be worried?
Comment from : @andreytamahkyarov

Thank you so much for this My 7 month old loves pulling up on everything to standing and I always tell her no whenever she tries to do it on the coffee table or ottoman just because I’m afraid she might fall I should’ve encouraged her more
Comment from : @thepinkcarousel

Thank you so much
Comment from : @ashleyji5480

Thanks so much Your videos are always really helpful
Comment from : @emilykenny2714

My daughter can walk when holding on to things she just turned 1 All she does is play in standing position she just crawls to get to a place to stand She just started standing by herself a couple weeks ago but she will not try and take a step she gets scared and will sit down She used everything as a push walker as long as she’s touching something she’ll walk but the second I make her let go she stops and sits how do I get her to take those first few steps? I know she can walk by herself she just doesn’t know that yet
Comment from : @marissav6099

My baby is about a year and a half old He is capable of walking but he has a fear of walking independently Unfortunately we did not give him much belly time and we put him in one of those walkers for too long Now when he attempts to walk on his own, he wants to lean back and stop walking How can I help him overcome the fear of walking independently? We know he's capable because as long as somebody is somewhat within reach he will try to reach them
Comment from : @Gsquared360

This was super helpful ❤️
Comment from : @lindysokudela5553

Top tip don't hold both their hands they do get reliant on that you can feel that when you do it, they directed you because they want you to bring them places which is pretty clever Hold one hand and switch hands and let go (safely, when balanced) often They will swing and lose balance but they need to do this My baby was walking within a week of me doing this with her She had no interest in walking by herself I started walking her the last couple blocks to nursery (one handed) every day and all of a sudden she started running from table to chair That was a couple months ago, she's really steady on her feet now
Comment from : @GS-dz5kr

My daughter can walk with just one of my hands But when I start letting go she starts sitting She doesn’t have the confidence to stand on her own She no longer pulls her self up on furniture, she does it without support but grabs the couch once she’s standing up How do i build her confidence? brbrShe walks with her push walker and along the couches already She’s been doing that for 2 months
Comment from : @amberlysoto

Oh wow thank you
Comment from : @carolyncherry6470

My 11month old baby girl is pulling herself up on everything in our house, she hasn't started inching herself along the couch yet but I'm going to take your advice and place one of her favorite toys near her reach on the couch and see how she does! 👶🏼🐥🚸You gave some really solid tips, thank you so much! (: I'll keep watching

Comment from : @TheCreativeAtelier

It sounds like all of these points can be true for those standing walkers as well I noticed that my older daughter developed a bad habit of leaning forward due to using one of these walkers Is this true?
