Sitting Up

I know that every baby grows and does
things at their pace. Even I say that my
daughter is lazy but I know that she isn't
really. Now, this being said, are the
excersizes that I could do with my
daughter that would help her strenghten
her back muscles and whatever else would
help her sit up? I am not trying to rush
her....Just help her. We do our floor
excersizes everynight......Tummy time,
which she does anyway.....And we stand up
and stuff like that, but what about
sitting up? What can we do?

enough and she will sit when she is ready.

Try sitting her up and hold her hands
(well, kinda let her hold yours.) allow
her to use her own muscles to hold herself
up by holding you... Thats what im doing
with .Caty and shes already sitting up for
a few seconds on her own. I did the same
with .Jacob.

My son sat up alone at 6 months and I
never did exersises for that except the
boppy. I just looked up when babies
generally sit up on their own and it says
7 to 9 months, so youre totally fine.
( I know thats just a general guideline)

I realize that .Amelia is totally fine. I
was just wondering because we have a
rutine and I just wanted to maybe add some
stuff to the nightly games and things we
do. I dont want to rush her just help
her.
Sandra, thanks but we do already do stuff
like that. I guess that is all I can
really do. We do our stretches, our
tummy time, stand up time, sit up time,
play time with our little games, and our
massages. I guess that is all I can do
and she will be sitting up before I know
it.
Thanks guys.

I try to help .Alyvia sit up, by sitting
her down and holding her hands for
balance. But she pulls on my hands and
stands up.  and
she tightens her whole body like a board
so it's hard to get her legs to bend
sometimes. So .I'm right there with you,
.Gen!

Yea holding there hands are good and
stuff, jordynne like sit when u hold her
hands and she can sorta pull herself. She
likes to be sat up but to early for the
boppy kinda . She enjoys beined held so
she can sorta stand or stretch her little
legs out and stand on them with my help
lol. She hates to lay on her back so eh
maybe she will be a crazy crawler and be
all over the place. I think joseph
learned to crawl before he sat up on his
own at all, it took him a while to sit up
lol. Jason would joke that his head
weighed him over cu zhe had quite a big
head when he was born lol

i think that amelia will be crawling
before she sits up becaause she can get up
on all fours for a few and then she
topples over.

The best exercises that you can do to
strengthen back muscles are usually done
on the tummy. From 17 years of ballet
all of our back exercises were done with
our bellies on the floor. Also balance
comes from the abs. So her tummy time is
already getting her strong!!!!

Wow 17 years of ballet????? I thought 16
years was a long time. I stopped after
16 years and did my .Tae kwon do. 19
years of that.
.......Well then I am doing the right
things. She is perfect I know, but I just
wanted to help her. But she will be
doing it soon enough.
