First, breathe. Every kid is on their own time zone. Some walk at 10 months, others at 16.
But let’s talk red flags. If they aren’t pointing, waving, or babbling at all? Mention it to the doctor.
If they used to walk and suddenly stopped? That’s worth a call too.
You know your kid better than a checklist. Trust your gut. If it’s quiet, check for trouble.
The Real Milestone: Survival
Here’s the truth: The biggest milestone at 14 months is your sanity.
You survive a day of spilled food, tiny tantrums, and 30 minutes of “Just One More Book.”
And then you do it again tomorrow. You are a warrior in yoga pants.
So, cheers, friend. You’re doing amazing. Now go step on that rogue Lego for good luck.
