Desperate to stand

Does anyone else have an 8 month old who is desperate to stand? My little boy constantly pulls himself up on the side of the sofa or our legs 😅 We've been teaching him how to safely slide off the sofa but know he wants to abseil off our laps onto his feet every time he's sat on our lap 😀 Please tell me, my little boy isn't the only one to do this....

My son is 6 months and is the same way 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅

Ours was the same. Around 7 months he was coasting around and trying to dive head first off of everything. It didn't take him long to learn how to slide down feet first though thankfully 😮‍💨😅

I did, she wouldn’t stop and was walking at 9.5 months! Foam mats around the sofa were a lifesaver.

My youngest was pushing a walker round and cruising the furniture at 7 months old. He didn’t walk independently until 11 months though

Yeah, my little girl was standing around then and cruising furniture. We got her a wooden push walker to promote her to step and stand straight for her first Xmas and she loved it.

Our LG is the same she hates being sat down and constantly tries to pull herself up on anything she can get too 😅 She loves walking about holding out fingers but isn't confident enough to let go yet xx

My 3 month old fights me to stand then tries to walk off me
