5 Month Old Question! Posted: 01-09-06 19:14pm
Hey everyone ...My son is 5 months ...Will
be 6 on the 29th of the month....And I was
wondering if he should be sitting up by
himself ...Without falling over ...
**because when we try to let him he either
rolls over or he sits so far foward that
he rolls over on his belly...
I thought babys were already sitting up at
this stage...

There's no real time frame for babies to
sit up, crawl, walk, etc. Each baby has
his/her own pace. My nephew didn't sit up
until 8 months, and he started walking at
16 months. So don't worry about it. Let
your little guy take his time. ;-)

I have 2 children and I know how hard it
is not to try to compare them with other
peoples, sitting up comes around
6mths-9mths so if he is not yet 6mths
there is no need to worry! He will sit
when he is good and ready. When my first
son was a baby he took forever to walk,
everyone elses babies at the same age were
all running about and he used to just sit
there looking at them, he eventually took
his 1st steps at 15mths but believe me
this ended up being a blessing , once
babies are up and about they are into
everything and you hardly get a chance to
sit down yourself!! Lol!
