Sleep sack or duvet?

What’s everyone using for their LO’s? We’ve been using sleep sacks but not sure if he’s starting to get too hot and perhaps introduce a duvet?! But also not sure if he’s still too young (19 months)

Walking…

My little girl is nearly 17 months and still can’t stand unaided or walk. How likely is it that she will just get up and walk one day? Should I consider contacting my health visitor? When did your little ones start to walk?
