what to do for a baby who isn't walking?

The real reply from the in-app AI advisor

Walking is a skill every baby reaches in their own time. In typical development, babies start walking independently between 9-18 months. If your baby is within this range and their overall development is healthy (crawling, pulling up to stand using furniture, cruising along objects), there's no need to worry. To support the walking process, provide a safe, spacious area at home and allow them to walk while holding onto things with hands-on push toys (not walkers, but pushing-assisted toys). If your baby hasn't taken any steps by 18 months or has lost motor skills they previously gained, I recommend seeing a pediatrician or child development specialist.
