will my baby walk soon?

Mom, my baby (7.5 months old) has started standing up and pulling objects to stand. I was really surprised because I didn't expect him to do that at his age. In fact, a few times I've seen him able to walk while holding onto my/ his father's hand. Will my baby be walking soon? I'm worried if this is too early or normal? Has anyone experienced this?

Hey there! It's awesome to hear that your little one is already showing signs of wanting to walk at 7.5 months old. Every baby develops at their own pace, so it's totally normal for some babies to start standing and even taking a few steps while holding onto something at this age. It sounds like your baby is eager to explore and move around, which is a great sign of healthy development. Most babies take their first independent steps between 9 to 12 months, but it's not unusual for some to start a little earlier or later. To support your baby's walking development, you can encourage him to practice standing and taking small steps by holding onto your hands or furniture. Make sure your home is safe for him to explore and move around, and give him plenty of opportunities to practice his newfound skills. If you have any concerns about your baby's development, it's always a good idea to discuss them with your pediatrician. But from what you've described, it sounds like your little one is on track and just eager to get moving. Enjoy this exciting milestone with your baby! https://invl.io/cll6she
