9-10 months.. they should be crawling and standing with support/cruising. Not standing without support (except some advanced babies). That usually comes 11-12 months. But even then, that’s the average age. There’s a range which is considered normal/acceptable, and your LO is definitely normal

My LO start to walk unassisted by 13 months. Still rmbr her birthday, she can only stand walk abit and fall. And now she 17 months running non stop and love walking. 😂 Every child is different. Just slowly keep guiding her..

My couldn’t till 15 months. Every child is different. Don’t worry:) once your LO starts running around, they don’t stop. Then you begin your daily exercise of chasing them 😂

It's actually quite normal :) Nothing to worry. Working with infants, they all have different timings. Just enjoy it while it last 😉

I think it’s fine cause all babies are not the same. Maybe she will hit the milestone a little later.

It may not be surprising that it is taking her a bit longer to stand than other kids her age

I think it's fine, you may want to consult the pediatrician on your next visit...

Every baby is different. Mine only stand on own at close to 12 months old. :)

Every child is unique. Give your child some time to learn

Don't rush your child. Some even 18months then can walk
