Is Anyones 7 month old trying to stand?

My baby is constantly trying to get hold of things she can pull herself with and stand, disbalances, and keeps falling. I literally can't do anything anymore but watch her. 🥲 Also, not sure if her body is ready for it and I should encourage this?

Babbling v. 'talking'

How do you define babbling v. the first time they actually say mama and dada? My baby says mama and dada rather than mamamamamam which is how she first started. But at night she goes 'mama...... mama... .mama' so does that make it babbling? 😅 so confused!
