Dangerous of Baby Walkers
I know some people use baby walkers to help young children learn to walk.
Is it True?
No, Not at all.
It is very much dangerous for a baby being in Walker.
Walkers won't help your baby walk.
If your baby were occupied in Walker, he/she could be left unwatched for a short period.
Walkers only delay the important milestone activities like
1. Rolling on the floor.
2. Sitting.
3. Crawling.
4. Pulling themselves from down to stand.
When the babies sit and pull themselves up, they are learning how to balance.
But a baby doesn't balance in walker, delaying on learning this important skill.
By sitting in the Walker they use their toes, which tightens their leg muscles, and slow their muscle development.
If baby uses Walker before they learn to walk leads to hip bone imbalance and bend the legs.
Being in a Walker also means less time on hands, knees in a crawling or pre crawling position.
This is important to develop weight bearing through both the pelvis and shoulders.
