when can babies stand with support
Our panel of health writers. Most babies first pull themselves up to a standing position between about eight months and 10 months. At this stage your baby will need to hang on to you or a solid piece of furniture. By 11 months she may be able to stand on her own. Standing usually comes after crawling. As your baby becomes more confident about standing she will start to move herself around. She'll still want the safety of holding on to a piece of furniture though.
