What should I do if my baby is 14 months old and still not walking?

Patient's question:

My child is fourteen months old and still cannot walk. The check-up results show no calcium deficiency, but other babies of the same age have already been walking for a long time. I am very worried. What should I do if my baby is still not walking at fourteen months?

Doctor's answer:

Generally, a one-year-old child can walk. Children between 14 and 15 months tend to walk more steadily. If a 14-month-old baby cannot walk yet, it does not necessarily indicate developmental delay or brain development issues. It is necessary to gradually exercise the child, as each child's development has individual differences. If the baby did not experience asphyxiation or oxygen deprivation at birth, and other motor and cognitive developments are within the normal range, then there should not be a significant problem. Gradual exercise is sufficient.
