She started those around 15 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-walking-did-lo-wear-hard-soled-shoes#post-1501025 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 11:23:48 +0000 edelweiss 1501025@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>he started taking tentative steps at 10.5 months, walking more regularly around 11.5 months, and we got him real shoes right after his 1st birthday. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-walking-did-lo-wear-hard-soled-shoes#post-1500693 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 10:21:21 +0000 oliviaoblivia 1500693@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We switched around 2 months after walking. I still put her in soft soles around the house, but if we leave the house she wears hardsoles. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-walking-did-lo-wear-hard-soled-shoes#post-1500655 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 10:11:01 +0000 MsLipGloss 1500655@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: Newp. Maybe in another week or two? I bought the 4's just in case . . . moving up sizes (from her SKR Smallers) seemed to happen overnight! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-walking-did-lo-wear-hard-soled-shoes#post-1500558 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 09:46:32 +0000 Smurfette 1500558@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsLipGloss: Still? I thought she was a 4 now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-walking-did-lo-wear-hard-soled-shoes#post-1500550 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 09:44:42 +0000 cascademom 1500550@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: @MsLipGloss: I guess my dude has big feet. When we measured him with a paper thingie for his Stride Rites off of Amazon, he was a size 6 last summer or so. He just got new shoes recently, size 7's when he visited my parents for a weekend. I'm thinking of buying some cute shoes from Target in 8's to get us through fall because we have some 7.5s from my brother's kids to use this summer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-walking-did-lo-wear-hard-soled-shoes#post-1500531 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 09:38:16 +0000 MsLipGloss 1500531@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cascademom: my 18 month old is still in a size 3! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-walking-did-lo-wear-hard-soled-shoes#post-1500526 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 09:37:18 +0000 Smurfette 1500526@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cascademom: Haha! She is fits in a 3.5 still! 4's are huge on her.<br /> @Mrs. Blue: That is what I was thinking. I noticed everyone else had on hard soled when I picked her up. And I think it would be better when they are playing on the playground. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-walking-did-lo-wear-hard-soled-shoes#post-1500512 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 09:33:03 +0000 MamaMoose 1500512@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsLipGloss: HAHAHA M thinks stomping is the BEST.EVER.</p> <p>@Smurfette: M started walking at 10 months and by 12 months we had her in hard soles. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-walking-did-lo-wear-hard-soled-shoes#post-1500509 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 09:31:24 +0000 Mrs. Blue 1500509@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We tried this weekend with the boys. It took them a while, but then they were walking pretty well. Like R, I don't think they were super comfortable yet though. My plan is to have them wear their hard-soled shoes on the weekends for a little while every day to help them adjust, but not send them to daycare yet in them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-walking-did-lo-wear-hard-soled-shoes#post-1500505 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 09:30:27 +0000 cascademom 1500505@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Within a month or two, we switched over. It was actually on the suggestion of our daycare lady. The soft ones didn't help for walking outside on the sidewalk. At 18 months old, he's on his second pair of shoes (Stride Rite) in size 7. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-walking-did-lo-wear-hard-soled-shoes#post-1500500 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 09:28:18 +0000 looch 1500500@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am trying to think, I want to see we did a tradtional shoe at around a year? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-walking-did-lo-wear-hard-soled-shoes#post-1500489 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 09:25:31 +0000 mrsjyw 1500489@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS was in his SKR smallers for the first four months (11-14 months) but we also had a pair of hardsoled SR boots that he would wear time to time during that period too.</p> <p>He's 16 months now and wears hardsoled </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-walking-did-lo-wear-hard-soled-shoes#post-1500478 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 09:22:29 +0000 MsLipGloss 1500478@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: No issues. I let her practice in them for a short period of time at home before I sent her to school in them. She loves to *stomp*! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-walking-did-lo-wear-hard-soled-shoes#post-1500473 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 09:21:05 +0000 chopsuey 1500473@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: hahahaah it's possible!<br /> They're so convenient though and M was slipping them on and off by herself at a really young age :D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-long-after-walking-did-lo-wear-hard-soled-shoes#post-1500445 Tue, 18 Mar 2014 09:11:54 +0000 Smurfette 1500445@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey: I am hoping to never get Crocs......is that possible? :silly:<br /> @MsLipGloss: She walked fine in them then?
