baby walking progression?

The real reply from the in-app AI advisor

Baby starts walking usually between 9-18 months and there's no specific stage called a unique 'walking progression' that all babies naturally go through; this term is more commonly used in folk speech to describe temporary motor skills like crawling, cruising and stepping while holding on during the pre-walking period. Clinically, baby's walking development follows stages: head control, rolling, sitting, crawling, cruising (standing while holding on), stepping with support, and finally independent walking. Babies may skip any of these stages or change the order — for example, some babies skip crawling entirely and walk directly, which is normal. If baby still isn't walking independently at 18 months, consulting your pediatrician is appropriate.
