Hi there

I have a son who is 16 weeks. Fot at least 6 weeks he has shown great interest (and strength) in supported standing. ie on the floor, or someone's knees. I walked myself at 7 weeks- apparently I wasn't interested in crawling/sitting..just getting on my feet!!

we have purchased a 'Lindam' baby bouncer which I put him in once or twice a day..10 mins max. He loves this- can weight transfer, spin around.

As a physio, I think if he is showing he wants and can do it..then we shouldn't worry it is too early and could be damaging developmentally.

Does anyone have any evdence based research on early walking/standing in babies??
