Baby development at 16 months
Hello Doctors
My baby is almost 16 months (corrected age 15 months)
He can now stand independently for a minute and if we make him stand he takes independent steps as well. Day by day he is getting a hold on it.
I believe he needs to build more confidence.
My question is
1. How long does it take to walk entirely independently after getting the balance. I know every baby is different.
2. Is this considered delayed walking?
He is very active, speaks few words, does gestures like pointing , clapping, showing (mostly not interested in waiving, but he used to do that), understands simple commands as well.
