Hi there...
Up to now I haven't been too concerned about my son's lack of walking but the look of shock on a nurse's face at a recent A & E visit for him kind of got me a bit worried and it's been playing on my mind.
DS is 17 months old. He's starting to talk, into everything, tormenting his big sister/the cat, cheeky, etc. So all pretty normal (I think!) He pulls up on things and walks along furniture. He will walk if someone is holding both his hands. Will occasionally stand unassisted when he forgets but mostly finds falling down on his bum hilarious . But he isn't walking yet....
Should I be worried?? I also don't have access to a health visitor as we have just moved abroad where they don't have the equivalent. We are also required to use travel insurance for the next two months until eligible for public health care (similar to nhs).
He has been slightly slow in other areas like crawling... At his 12 month review he was still doing a commando crawl...
