He started walking about two months earlier than cousins. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-was-your-lo-when-they-started-walking-1#post-1331245 Thu, 09 Jan 2014 13:36:41 +0000 2PeasinaPod 1331245@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It was a few days before his 1st birthday that he took a few tentative steps. He was off and walking steadily right after his birthday!</p> <p>I'm also surprised at how many early walkers there are! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-was-your-lo-when-they-started-walking-1#post-1331234 Thu, 09 Jan 2014 13:34:50 +0000 Mrs. Jump Rope 1331234@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Chloe took her first step at 7 months, and was full on walking by 9. My dad recently found a vide of her walking at the beach in August 2012! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-was-your-lo-when-they-started-walking-1#post-1331226 Thu, 09 Jan 2014 13:32:52 +0000 MrsF 1331226@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>M just took her first steps at almost 15 months. Still waiting for full-on waking. She's super verbal and just not interested in walking at all. I didn't walk until I was 18 months so I'm trying to relax about it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-was-your-lo-when-they-started-walking-1#post-1331201 Thu, 09 Jan 2014 13:27:36 +0000 travellingbee 1331201@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Funny, I guess everyone in my family is an early walker but I didn't realize how unusual that is:<br /> First steps in order-<br /> Niece #1- 7.5 months (no joke!)<br /> Dad- 8 months<br /> Brother and niece #2- 9 months<br /> Me- 10 months<br /> Mom 10.5 months</p> <p>So my LO is 10 months next week and I'm like... where are the steps buddy? LOL- I will be patient. Especially now that I see that is still pretty early. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-was-your-lo-when-they-started-walking-1#post-1331200 Thu, 09 Jan 2014 13:27:33 +0000 Mrs Green Grass 1331200@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wow, 10 months is the most common for this poll! We are approaching a year adjusted. He's got great balance and stands all the time, but still rarely lets go. Wondering if he'll just take off one day or if he'll stay stuck in this stage for awhile... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-was-your-lo-when-they-started-walking-1#post-1331182 Thu, 09 Jan 2014 13:22:44 +0000 Smurfette 1331182@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@googly-eyes: Yes!! R will be 10 months on Sat, and has taken one step a couple times but not walking for sure. Everyone IRL tells me that is super early. I wonder what people consider walking: 3 or 4 steps or full or walking like 10 ft.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-was-your-lo-when-they-started-walking-1#post-1331130 Thu, 09 Jan 2014 13:05:50 +0000 Sammyfab 1331130@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@googly-eyes: that was my first reaction after I answered the poll....holy early walkers!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-was-your-lo-when-they-started-walking-1#post-1331118 Thu, 09 Jan 2014 13:03:01 +0000 googly-eyes 1331118@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Am I the only one who is surprised at the % of early walkers?! Wow! </p> <p>I didn't say earlier but dd was 12 months (a few steps before that but she started primarily walking just after her birthday) which seems to be pretty average. </p> <p>@Periwinkle: I think from dd taking a couple steps to primarily walking it was about a month! Probably very soon for your son, how exciting!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-was-your-lo-when-they-started-walking-1#post-1330891 Thu, 09 Jan 2014 11:53:31 +0000 Mrs. Twine 1330891@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't realize you had enabled multiple votes, so just Lorelei appears in the results. Ellie was 16 months, and Lorelei was 11. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-was-your-lo-when-they-started-walking-1#post-1330826 Thu, 09 Jan 2014 11:30:42 +0000 stargal 1330826@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>14.5 months </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-was-your-lo-when-they-started-walking-1#post-1330576 Thu, 09 Jan 2014 10:34:19 +0000 NovBaby1112 1330576@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>started taking a few steps around 11 months, was full on walking at 12 months </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-was-your-lo-when-they-started-walking-1#post-1330562 Thu, 09 Jan 2014 10:32:06 +0000 Periwinkle 1330562@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'll be watching this thread! LO is 14 months old and took one step a frew weeks ago but is not quite ready to walk on his own, He cruises like a champ and is pretty solid on his feet walking a few steps with us, but he hasn't shown much interest in walking on his own.</p> <p>He is an amazing crawler. Like super speed crawler. I don't think he sees any real need to walk! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-was-your-lo-when-they-started-walking-1#post-1330512 Thu, 09 Jan 2014 10:21:13 +0000 Mrs. Bee 1330512@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Charlie walked at 13 months and Olive walked at 18. I was never worried about Olive (wouldn't have started worrying until 19 months), because I know several kids that didn't walk until 18 months and that's within the upper limit of average. She continued to make progress so I knew it would happen eventually. She was just a cautious girl, and had low muscle tone. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-was-your-lo-when-they-started-walking-1#post-1330502 Thu, 09 Jan 2014 10:18:33 +0000 bpcmarj 1330502@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>13-14 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-old-was-your-lo-when-they-started-walking-1#post-1330483 Thu, 09 Jan 2014 10:14:46 +0000 photojane 1330483@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>10.5 months.
