Any other June/July 2007 babies not walking?

DD will be 15 months on Sunday and still not walking. I'm not worried really, but I figured I'd see just HOW out of the ordinary she is!

DD cruises, walks holding our hand, walks with a walker toy, and has taken at most 4 steps (one time), and will randomly take a step or two unassisted while she's cruising. That's where we're at.

End of June here. 15 months today!!

He does 1-2 steps usually.

He did 8 steps a few days ago. Then nothing. He likes to hang on to furniture.

He can walk with just holding on to one of our hands.

April 2007 mom here stepping in. Christopher didn't walk until 2 days before he was 16 months old....and when he did, he did it perfectly and pretty much started running

So, don't worry. The "average" is 12-15 months and of course my kid waits til the verryyy end to do it

DD has the same b-day as yours

she is a walker, but we also call her a "mute", she doesn't say anything!
We figure one day, she's just going to start blurting out stories!!

I know two other babies who were born in the end of June of 2007 and I don't think either are walking.

DD was VERY early (10.5 months) and I think I liked it better when she wasn't mobile like that. Things were easier.

One of the babies I mentioned is an LIF baby, but I don't want to say who to respect the mom's privacy.

You are NOT alone.

Re: Any other June/July 2007 babies not walking?

My boys are not walking..They are 15 mo they were also preemies and both get PT . They will cruise but have no desire to let go.. they also come from a family of late walkers..DD did not walk untill 16 months and all three of my sisters kids all walked 15-17 months...

Re: Any other June/July 2007 babies not walking?

DS is a June 2007 baby. 14 months. Not walking. Only started crawling after his first b'day. Just started cruising less than 2 weeks ago.

ETA - he can't stand on his own without holding onto anything. He let go 4 times since this weekend and can hold for a second before he falls on his butt and either laughs of cries...it's a 50/50. Because he was so late in crawling, standing and cruising he is receiving PT. Tomorrow is his second session. My ped told me that by 16 months he should be walking although he said he's seen babies go to 18 months.

My eldest daughter didnt walk until after 15 months old...she could stand herself up in the middle of the livingroom floor since she was 10 months old...but she wouldnt walk. Then one day she just WALKED. But when she did she never fell..never wobbled...never did the drunken sailor thing.

Re: Any other June/July 2007 babies not walking?

Don't stress at all. Gracie did not start walking until her 14 month bday. She would do all the things your DD did, cruise, walk w/ toys & take steps here/there, but nothing consistent. Then she just started to walk that morning, she got up & started to walk across the living room & then we had a party at a hall that day & she was on the dance floor walking the whole time. It'll happen.
