Some advice on helping daughter walk...?

Question

My daughter is now nine months old she has been cruising since she was 6.5 months old. She walks with her walk behind walkers and walks while holding onto furniture or my hands. But when I let go she gets a scared look on her face and sets down. Is there anything I can do to help her walk or will she just work through it on her own. She is also a great climber we had to buy baby gates for our stairs because she halls butt up them and she uses her little toes to climb up the side of the couch.

Answer 1

Just let her get there in her own time. Once she starts walking you'll be wishing she'd sit still!!

Answer 2

My daughter didn't pull herself up and start cruising until her 9th month, so... really just relax.  She's right on schedule, let her do her own thing.

There ARE some silly harness things that supposedly you put the kid in and walk and hold them up, but honestly they seem like a waste of money to me.  

Answer 3

What's the rush to make her start walking?

My daughter walked around furniture for months and months before walking on her own. Started walking around furniture around 8 months and didn't walk on her own until 13 months.

Let her walk when she is ready!

Answer 4

The best thing that helped my daughter learn to walk was one of those little push walker toys they sell. We got our daughter one of those and within a couple weeks she was walking on her own! We got her something similar to this http://www.albeebaby.com/chinbaacwa.html

Answer 5

Just let her get through it herself.  Fact: Walkers do NOT help. It makes your baby walk LATER than she is suppose to. Just let her get through it herself, she can do it!  

Answer 6

You just need to let her work it out in her own time. She will soon be taking off and you will wish she was still crawling-ha. My Daughter was the same way. She was wanting to walk around 9 months old, but it took her a full month to finally be able to take off and keep going on her own. Never try to be in a rush for your child to meet any of these so called milestones. Also don't try to compare or let others tell you that she should be walking by now or that so and so did this at a certain age. All babies are different.

Ok after reading your update I can understand. They just need to work it out. You can try to encourage her by holding her hands and only letting go when you think she can handle it.
