The 3 steps when the baby starts to walk!

One of the most anticipated moments for parents is when their baby starts walking alone!

But for this to happen, the baby goes through 3 crucial stages :

1. He walks with the support of his hands , holding on to sofas, furniture, benches and anything else he can hold on to. This is the initial phase of this process, where the baby trains the coordination movement between the brain and the feet.
2. Balances statically , standing without support. It is at this stage that the baby takes off the support of his hands for a few moments and remains static, practicing his balance. This is when he will notice that his body sways slightly forward and backward. At this point, it will not be long before he starts walking.
3. And that's it! He begins to walk independently , when the baby starts to risk walking from one place to another alone.

IMPORTANT: ⠀
You should not encourage your baby to walk if he is still in the first stage. It is important to give him time to learn to coordinate his feet and the rest of his body.

Each baby’s personality influences the start of this stage.
Babies with a more adventurous personality start earlier, and the more cautious ones don't take a step without being sure they are safe.

Babies most commonly start walking between 12-18 months.
