walking

hello
my daughter is 17months old and she doesnt walk yet. and i feel that all my friends babies are walking and everyone keeps asking me if shes walking yet. it just seems that people are making me worry about it.. i no she will do it when shes ready and i dont want to pressure on her or worry myself. i just wondered if anyone is in the same situation.
thanks xx

Hiya!
My son who is 10yrs old now didn't walk until he was 18months old, he was quite happy sitting and crawling up until then! Every baby is different and I remember getting a few unwanted comments from people about him not walking until later on than theirs etc etc... My 14month old son now started walking about a month ago and now i get comments like does he not say a lot of words yet? So no matter what they do you cant win with some people!!
hope this helps and dont worry she will walk in her own time and then the fun will start for you LOL!
xx
