When did your guys bubbas start walking.

My family are saying Ben is a bit slow as hes not into walking at 11mths, he was such an early crawler and seems to be happy getting around at the speed of light like that rather than learning to walk!

So is he "slow" apparently my brother and I walked at 9 mths

No definately not!!!! If Ben was walkign at 11 months he would be an early walker not average. Kobe walked at 13mths and lots of people thought that was reasonably early. My neice didnt walk till 18mths and that was still considered in the normal walking age range.
I wouldnt be worried at all that he isnt walking.

I think 12-18mos is "normal", 9 mos is jolly early! Both my girls were walking at 12 1/2 mos, but Hannah crawled at 10mos and Briona crawled at 5 mos. So crawling is not always an indication either.

Rhiannon has only just started walking...as in letting go of the furniture and walking across the room...(so she isnt full on walking yet)

every baby is different...and when Ben is ready he will just get up and go

Jake was 10 m,onths taking a first step, BUT about a year before he walking about confidently. Taine took first steps at a year and was off! 11 months is definitely not too early, but must admit that when baby reaches other milestones quickly (i.e. crawling) everybody seems to assume they will reach the others too. Jake and Taine both crawled quite early and rolled really early and everyone was saying "oh, they'll walk soon" at like 6 months....and when it took a lot longer, people were surprised.

my son didnt move around at all!! he never crawled or anything so everyone would say that he was very slow but one day when he was 10months old he was sitting next to the couch and he just pulled himself up and walked!!!
Every child is different so dont stress to much

9 months is really early to start walking. Matthew started walking just a few days before his first birthday & I actually thought that was reasonably early.

ahh no ben is definately not slow!
jack didn't CRAWL until 13mths and walked at 18mths! until he was crawling he was happy rolling about everywhere
charli is almost 7mths and hasn't started rolling so maybe my babies are the slow ones

Brae was walking at 9mnths. Crawling at 5mnths.
God it was a pain!!!
I wish i had put velcro on his pants to slow him down.

Everyone is different, i definitely think they later the better - for sanity of mums.

Connor's crawling at 6 months - I think he'll be an early walker because he wants to catch up with the terrortot. It's a PAIN.
Andrew and Sean both started walking at around 13 months.

Kiya crawled at just under 7 months, started pulling herself up on the furniture a week later at exactly 7 months and started walking at 8.5 months.

Josiah crawled at 7 months and started walking at 9.5 months.

Xavier is commando-crawling all over the place at 5.5 months and I think he'll be crawling properly by the time he's 6 months.

At this rate, I'm going to be so fit chasing them all around!

Zaara crawled the day she was 9 months. Was walking around furniture at 11 months and walked properly at 13 months (did few steps between 11-12 months). Like every one has said, each child is different. I walked at 10m and my brother at 8m...

My MIL use to say some thing is wrong with Zaara since she wasnt walking!! Go see a Doctor....ARRGGG

Please dont worry Ben will walk when he is ready!

It is normal by the way for some toddlers to only start walking at 15 months.
