advice I got regarding the crawling-to-walking thing: don't let them go from one to the other too fast, as the crawling can be important in developing pathways that are later used in reading!
I can't remember the exact numbers, but the friend who told me about it had a child who was standing up at 7 months (as was my eldest), and they were 'knocking zer down', and making zer crawl - basically discouraging walking - for about two months.
