My baby isn’t walking at 14 months

My girl is turning 15 months next week but she can’t walk independently yet. She can walk while holding onto furniture but my PD says she’s a little slow. Is this normal?

Your child’s developmental milestones are compared against a bell curve of other children. When your PD says she’s a little slow, it might just mean she’s falling slightly behind but within expected range. Don’t fret too much for now and instead you can try to help her along by showering her with lots of praises and stand further away for her to make little extra effort to get to you or give her a plushie or ball to hold to stabilise herself while she walks.
