How long has he been able to stand? If it's only recently, it's normal for the legs to be a bit shaky and wobbly as he is still learning to find his balance and get used to the "feeling" that he can actually stand.

Sometimes it's also due to fear/confidence. Being able to stand with support is a major milestone and it takes a few attempts, falls and bumps for your baby to get used to standing supported or unsupported confidently.

That said, what is his feeding like? Is he still on milk? Formula or breast milk? I personally believe that babies should be on milk (breast milk or formula or preferably both) for the first 12 months of their life. This is because they need all the calcium they can get from milk. Calcium is vital in babies for strong bones as well as growth. For example, my son gets at least 100ml of formula at least four times a day. This is minus morning, evening and night time breast milk. He took his first walking steps unaided (although wobbly at the time) at 9 months.

If he's not drinking formula, do you add formula to his cereals? What is his source of calcium?

If you can get his feeding right and ensure he has a steady source of calcium, you do not need any drugs/multivitamin. With time (next few weeks), he will be able to stand confidently and also start taking his first few steps.

If however you are sure he has a steady source of calcium, then speak to your peadrictrian to prescribe a calcium supplement for you (which I really doubt they will).

Tanz 4 ur response ma am, its actually recently he starts standing with support.
I thought may be his bones are not strong enough.
He feeds every 3hours and he's not on bm, he stops bm on his own at 4months. He is on formula and he don't like drinking it ordinarily so, i make sure i put enough milk in his cereals.

I'm not in support of self medication and will not endorse it! Take your baby to the hospital for a proper evaluation and treatment.

What calms her down when she starts? If its food ensure its nearby so when she wakes you feed straight up. Though I'd prefer you give something like milk or milo or even plain old water. How is she able to navigate to the kitchen at that time? Dont you shut doors or turn off lights? You can begin to do that too for her safety so she doesn't get herself hurt!

Check around whether there is mfm close by. If none, then she is a pastor Mrs in the making. Just take her to bible college.

During the time I delivered, my mum takes Zino to mfm, when they return, my son will begin to demonstrate with his hands. Dieee, Dieee, break break break.

The mfm is directly opposite my house. Any time they are having vigil, he will just wake up, and begin to pray and shake his head, Dieee dieee. I have so many videos of him praying
