I thought it was staged, but those steps the kid took definitely look like first tries

I don’t think so. My kids usually did like two steps then fell down the first time. When the baby kept going I thought it looked staged.

That's just your kids. Mine got up one day and just walked across the length of the room. Admittedly there was no conveniently placed camera there but we were talking to his grandad on video call who tells everyone that he was the one who got to saw his grandkid take his first steps.

All kids are different

Did you not ever coach your kid to walk? Like our kids first steps were between his mum and I, they stood up using our help then walked a few steps between us. Then they'd stand up holding the couch and take a few steps. The never just stood up randomly in the middle of the room and walked around. That is a different level of balance.

We tried. He wasn't interested. He'd rather crawl. Sincr he was well within the range of that milestone, we let him shuffle along the couch. Until one day he decided he wants to walk. One of our friends' kid learned the way yours did.
