19 month old and still not walking!

[loretta95]

My little girl is 19 months old and still, not walking. She can walk when holding on to two hands but will not even stand alone if I try to let go, she can hold onto furniture and stand on her own but that's it, is there anything I can do to help her or do I need to see a doctor/health visitor about this?
Thanks in advance

The cutoff really for walking is 18MO so yeh I think speak to GP/HV. She might well still be fine but best to raise it. Does she bum shuffle? Apparently they tend to take longer x

Hello! I would definitely raise it with HV, but I wouldn't panic. My husband didn't walk until 18 months, my first baby not until 16 months, and my current baby is 17 months old next week and still not walking. 18 months does seem to be the age that it starts to get looked into, but my son's nursery said that they've seen so many delayed walkers that they actually don't flag a concern under 21 months. I was worried with my first child but not worried at all with my 17 month old. Also could be worth checking for hypermobility (over flexible joints) as this can delay walking.
I'll be ringing HV to flag at 18 months if my son isn't walking by then, but not concerned.
