Hi dear
welcome to the HCM,
Walking is a important mile stone for the growing babies.
Quite variables.depends upon many factors like nutrition,genetic factor,constitutional. enviormental, seasonal, socioeconomical, any chronic disease prenatal or postnatal. For most is Rickets in the current living scenario.
Some times walking may start at the age of 15 months.
improve his nutrition, add vitamin D, multivitamin etc.
Hope he will start walking.
