my baby is 13mths. old and she is active, but now a dayes i and my hubby facing a prob. nd that is : she is not ready to walk by her own, she walks with the help of table, sofa anything but when we ask her to move or walk her own she starts crying. Otherwise she likes walking, she force us to stand and hold her hand so that she can enjoy walking.i want her to be confidient.

She'll do it when she's ready. If you want her to be confident then be there for her. Don't force her or rush her... people THINK this will make their kids step up and be go-getters but it in fact has the opposite effect. When you push your child to do something they're not ready for you make them fearful and insecure. Just let her do it when she's ready. My 13 month old son is still only crawling. So every baby is different and develops at their own pace.
Best wishes.

well i have 5 kids and the one thing that i learned over the years is that they will do it when they want to, take for instance my oldest son started walking on his first birthday, then my little girl started walking when she was 9 mo. old, so you will see it will happen real soon for you.. then you'll wish she hadnt learned, lol but for real just give her time.

This is a normal pre walking behaviour. Keep encouraging her & don't stress she's doing everything normally.

she is scared of falling just hold her hands until she falls once or twice and knows there is nothing to be scared of
