Ds is just 7 months, he has been pulling himself up on furniture and "cursing" along for the past 2 weeks. we have been on holiday at my mum's house for the last 3 weeks, she has a carpeted lounge so he hasn't hurt himself when he falls. We are going home today and our home ( and everyone we know) has wooden, tiled floors, I am concerned that ds will really damage himself.
Dp's family all seem to walk early, dp's cousin has a son who recently started walking at 9 months so they bought a helmet for him, it was like a soft padded helmet. I went looking for a helmet for ds but shop keepers seemed to think it was a bad idea.
I will ask dp's cousin where she bought the helmet, am I being very pfb and will some bumps multiple clonks every day not harm him? Should I just stand behind him and catch him when he falls? Any other ideas?
