Child is not walking properly

2018-09-03 19:56:32
My son is 16 months old. He has no interest in walking but if we put him into standing position then he takes 3-4 steps unevenly then he sat down and start to crawl like a jet and he can cruise very well. But he can't stand up unsupported. Is there any problem?
