Hi , I’m aware there’s a large range of ages to begin walking properly and anything up to 18 months is considered normal. My older son walked confidently at 11 months. My younger son is 16 months and currently awaiting his next physio check at 18 months (for a different issue) but will mention it then. I was just wondering if anyone had similar , he can walk across a room if you coax him , but he won’t choose to walk and would rather crawl. However when he does walk , his left ankle always seems to roll in/give out. If you hold his left hand , he can walk for a lot longer than if you hold his right. He walks barefoot unless outside. Has anyone bought high top shoes for these little one for ankle support and has it helped? Or did this resolve on its own? Obviously waiting to hear from physio but wondered if anyone had been through the same .
