Learning to Walk

Other

So about 2 weeks ago our son learnt how to crawl and yesterday he learnt how to pull himself up into a standing position. After everything he has been through I'm one proud mummy!

He is going to be walking before I know it! Is there anyway to help encourage him, apart from the usual ones that I've read about.

He will be one on Sunday so I know its early for him to be walking but just want to give him as much help as possible.

I don't think it will be long after he is one before he starts. If his dad or I are holding onto his hands then he can take a few shaky steps forward. Never thought about getting him reins, he is so independent he might think they are holding him back! I will look into it, thanks.

That's amazing, such a proud moment. Its probably what you've heard before but barefeet is best, give him chance to cruise around the furniture, and maybe a push a long walker.
