you said u r son is 12 months and is not walking,he was able to sit a week ago, all other motor skills being normal, I see there is delay in the milestones of the baby. a child starts sitting with out support at the age of 6 months , start walking at the age of 9 months with support 11 months with out support.so there is definetly delay in his milestone better consult u r paediatrician.
