My baby is eight months old and always wants stand. Is this too early?

Postnatal, Your questions

My name is Jacinthe and Charlie, my eight-month-old baby always wants to stand with us. Do you think this is too early? Thanks for your help.


Hello Jacinthe,

Your baby is growing fast, right? They are already eight months old, and they are learning quickly. At this age, it’s healthy and expected that many babies will want to stand because their pelvis is increasingly stable. I wrote an article about baby motor development from 7-9 and 10-12 months. Please read it for more information you will find useful.
