Hi there! It's completely normal for babies to develop at their own pace, so there's no need to worry if your 13-month-old baby boy isn't interested in walking yet. Every baby is different and some take longer to reach certain milestones. It's great that he can stand by himself and is able to pull up using his walker or the side of the bed. These are all positive signs that he is on his way to walking independently. Encourage him to practice standing by placing toys or objects in front of him that he can reach for while standing. This will help him build confidence and balance. You can also try holding his hands as he stands to help him feel more secure and gradually let go as he gets more comfortable. Make sure to praise and encourage him whenever he attempts to stand or take a step. Remember, every baby has their own timeline for reaching developmental milestones, so be patient and supportive as he learns to walk. If you have any concerns, it's always a good idea to consult with your pediatrician for personalized advice. Keep up the great work, mama! Your little one will be walking in no time. https://invl.io/cll6she
