Usually by 15 monthsAs a certified parent educator, I work with babies of all ages. Some babies walk at 9 mos. or earlier , but most walk between 12-15 months. If your baby is not walking at 15 months, talk to your pediatrician or family doctor. Just before 1st BirthdayBabies start to walk when their leg and torso muscles are strong enough, they have the coordination and they have the motivation to do so (approximately on their first birthday. Older siblings tend to start walking later than younger ones. Some children walk as young as 8 months and others wait until about 14 months. AnswerAnywhere from 9 months to as late as 2 yrs. If you are over 2.5 years then I would seek professional help.

It more about motor skills that walking.

I was walking (and talking) at a little over 6 months (somewhat unbelievable, but I'm assured by my family). My aunt on the other hand spent many many years shuffling around on her bum quite happily. I have no problems with my joints of bones (as the health visitors said I could well have, I am Autistic spectrum though but to me it's more of a gift than a curse), my aunt had absolutely no problems walking when she actually needed to (she is not autistic spectrum).

When they are ready!I was really starting to get concerned about my 13 month old because he was showing no interest what so ever. He won't even pull himself up to stand, or walk with assistance. After researching my concern a little, I found the profound range of age that children walk is anywhere from 6months to 18 months. After that, you may want to ask a doctor. My little brothers walked at 6 and 8 months, respectively. My sister's girls all walked between 6 and 9 months. My three did not walk until 12 months, well, and the one that still is not walking! 6 months does sound bizarre, but I remember it happening with both my brothers and my niece. It really doeshappen quite frequently! Ultimately, each child developes at their own pace, and pushing them to move more quickly than they are ready to may end up having a reverse affect, and slow the process.
