Answer 1

I feel sorry for your daughter in one post your upset cause she is not doing something and the next your upset because she does something too much (manners), Good God she is not even two give the girl a break let her be a kid for god sake!!!! I can see it now boy oh boy is this girl ever gonna rebel in her teens. GOOD LUCK

Answer 2

You've taken her to the doctor and they said no big problems....breathe deep!!! She'll walk more eventually!!
Have you had her eyes checked...maybe she has some visual problem that makes her think she is falling....maybe she has ear trouble....you know an equilibrium imbalance or something. If she is walking 20-30 steps at a time I wouldn't sweat it too much...she's not quite 2 and is still very much a baby...alot of crawling is normal until about 3 years old!!! If it's still an issue in 6 months to a year maybe you can check back with the pediatrician but for now enjoy her and try not to worry so much ...you'll miss out on alot her discoveries

Answer 3

between the toys she will walk in the back of and push, my daughter had a fisher value one which could additionally fold flat, we took it everywhere and he or she did no longer walk on my own until eventually she replaced into 14 months. yet quickly after she began walking i got here upon she ought to no longer see properly, seems she has very undesirable imaginative and prescient, particularly some toddlers walk later, in spite of the undeniable fact that it somewhat is beneficial to get it checked. I cant have faith as undesirable as her eyes are, the dumb pediatrician in no way caught it, I easily have on account that switched for different motives than only that.

Answer 4

Ummm 20-30 steps is walking in my book.

Answer 5

Have you looked into Early Intervention... it's state run.....and many states will pay for your child to have some kind of therapy to help her walk. You need to call your county for information on this. It may very well be that everything is "normal" and she just might need some kind of physical or occupational therapy to get her going.

Answer 6

if i were you i would ask your pediatrician for a referral to an orthopedic specialist just to make sure there is nothing goofy going on. better safe than sorry the sooner the better!!

Answer 7

She just needs to learn how to balance herself and walk. Get her push-toys so she can practice and hold her hands and let her walk around. There's not much you can do except practice with her.
