My 7 and a half month old is playing 'on top of old smokey' on her winnie the pooh train, jiggling her legs in time. Pressing the button over and over again! Letting out yelps of joy!
She can walk with it slowly and unsteadily...early or what?

Depend son child, my ds was cruising at 6.5mths and walking completely unaided by 8.5mths..in fact he ran away from me by 9mths. DD1[14mths] was crusing and doing what your daughter does by 7.5mths but has only started to walk completely unaided in the past 6weeks or so and only confidently outside in the past 2 wks.

Early yes but not unusual so don't panic! My DD was early and took her unaided first steps at 8 months and was cruising well before that and would bend her legs and 'dance' as well. Enjoy

Thought I would have a bit more 'baby' time! She wont keep still for cuddles, she is far too busy!!! Its great, but tiring already!

Early but not abnormally so, don't worry! DD was on her feet from 5 months - friend's parents have a fab video of her dancing at a party with some older children. I found it so lovely and sweet to watch - enjoy her
