Wow that's great! All babies reach their milestones at different ages and yours just wants to reach them faster! Go with the flow of things and help and encourage your baby along with the things that she wants to accomplish!!

Each baby is an individual and as such, there is no real "normal" when it comes to their development. There are guidelines and your baby is a little ahead by wanting to walk at 6 months. However, there are many skills a baby is constantly learning. Can she sit alone, roll over, move from a laying position to a sitting position, crawl? Often babies who are advanced in their mobility skills will lag in another skill such as verbally. This is not always the case and some babies are just advanced for their age. If your daughter is trying these skills on her own and you are not pressuring her, then let her do what she is ready to do. My youngest daughter slept through the night from the day she was born, but she didn't walk until she was 15 months old. Every child is different.

There is no such thing as not normal. Probably wont happen though. A childs body is not strong enough to completly hold themself up at only 6 months. Your child should be learning to crawl at 6 months not walk. But I'm not saying that it has never happened, I'm sure there was probably a child somewhere who has. 9 Months is more average though.
Also sorry but I know you want to think you have an amazingly talented child. But alot hold there heads up at 2 days and alot right after birth. I'm guessing you mean she crawled at 3 months? I very much doubt that. Sorry but no. Any child can move there arm and hand around at 4 months. She is not standing at 5 months. Her body is not strong enough.

Yes Every baby is different my 4 children all walked at different times. my daughter walked at 7 months and is now five and has no problems, she completely skipped crawling, my other children started walking at 9 months 11 months and 11 1/2 months. And all are completely healthy. most children walk earlier if they have a older sibling.

Every baby is different some excell in things and others it takes longer. If she wants to walk let her. My mother told me I was walking by 7 months but I had an older brother I had to keep up with. My son was walking at 10 months and my daughter was walking at 8 months. So I say if she wants to let her. She isn't hurting anything.

I THINK ITS NORMAL, AND AMAZING TOO!! MY BABY HELD HIS HEAD UP THE FIRST DAY HE WAS BORN, HE RAISED HIS HEAD UP AND LOOKED AROUND THE ROOM, IM SO GLAD I HAD A CAMCORDER!! WELL HE HASNT DONE ALL THE OTHER STUFF THOUGH, I THINK ITS OK FOR THE BABY TO TRY TO WALK AS LONG AS YOUR THERE BYE ITS SIDE TO CATCH JUST IN CASE.

It's definitely ahead of the curve but as long as you aren't "helping" her walk, you need to just let her do what she's ready to do.
Parents shouldn't hold their babies hands to help them to walk at this age....but if she's getting up completely on her own, and trying to walk completely on her own then you couldn't really stop her anyway.
Good Luck.

"experts" say that if a child walks at an early age, that they may end up with some sort of mental problem, and have a hard time with math....but thats the "experts".
I started walking at 6 months, and the only problems I had was walking into things and bumping my head

Normal? What's normal??? As long as she's doing it on her own and not being forced to do it, THAT'S AWESOME!!! You've got a smart baby!!! And as far as development goes, as long as she crawled before she started to walk, encourage it!!!

if your child walks to early and the bones aren't strong enough, it can cause bow leggedness. It happened to my neice. My sister-in-law let the child run around with out support for the weight of the upper body (walkers, jumpers, etc.) and it shows.
