I haven't talked about my baby for a long time because I was waiting for the moment to announce that you are walking, but that moment is being delayed longer than expected since is about to turn 15 months and still does not walk alone.
He has crawled at seven months and has begun to stand between 9 and 10 months, which made me think that he would walk around the year, but it seems Victoria is so cuddly that he prefers for the moment being moved everywhere in arms.
A couple of steps does, but typical, from the table to the sofa and from father to mother. A three-stroller sticks or at the most four steps when one of us waits for it with open arms, but if we play the trick of moving away to stretch the walk, then it is thrown to the ground.
It is curious, because when we do the whole party for him to walk he makes himself beg, but when we do not pay attention to him he suddenly takes his little walks like who does not want the thing. I think the matter is amusing to the extent that we are on top of it.
If I worry about it being too late to walk? Not at all, first, because although it doesn't necessarily have a genetic component, I started walking at 15 months, that is to say that laziness comes in the genes. And second, and most importantly, as I have said several times each child evolves at its own pace and has its own maturation.
We should not worry if the baby of some friends walks around the house with 10 months and ours with almost 15 just goes from the armchair to the table.
If we compare ourselves, Elda's baby who has just turned one is in the same phase as Victoria with three months less, but comparisons in these cases are not what matters.
You will remember that for your birthday we gave my baby a walker. He loves it and uses it to explore the whole house, but it seems that he still doesn't feel safe to walk without support.
We also do some exercises to stimulate her like teaching her a toy she likes, or leaning a hand on her back, but she still doesn't let go of her hand.
My husband wants by all means to "get out" but I think that in these matters the rush is not good. When you feel confident in your own balance, you will leave alone. Anyway, it is a matter of days that you start taking your first steps alone.
And on the other hand, Victoria is quite earthquake, so it is not so bad that the moment in which she is at ease everywhere is delayed (hehe, just kidding).
I promise images for when the big event occurs.
