My 16mo DD walks holding on with both hands (won't try with one hand), can just about stand by herself but only does it when she's distracted, and seems to have no interest in trying to walk alone. She didn't crawl until 11 mos, and she just seems so nervous about walking.
She's been talking a lot more lately, so maybe she's been working on that instead of walking? Also, she's quite slim and long-limbed, with tiny feet, could it be a balance issue?
How long should I wait before I see the health visitor?
