Anyones 6mo old still not sitting up on their own? My daughter is always pushing to lay down when I try to sit her up.

Question

Any advice would be great

Answer

Yes and no lol. My son can sit up unassisted for almost a minute but he has to be on a firmer surface with no toys around to distract him or else he will flop over reaching for a toy.
Try putting her on a firmer flat surface (hard floor with a thin towel or blanket underneath. And move toys or any distractions out of the way. Baby will wobble a lot when something catches their attention and will just fall over. Literally nothing in their view lol maybe a mirror but try and move anything out of the way that’s even the slightest distraction.
Also it’s very normal for babies at 6 months to not be able to sit up unassisted. I am signing my son up for infant swim lessons and one of the criteria is that they must be able to sit up unassisted no wobbling for a full minute. The swim instructor said it’s very rare that she has babies at 6 months being able to do this. More at the 7 month mark or sometimes closer to 8

Answer

Our daughter can sit up basically forever but still can’t roll over.

Answer

My daughter turned 6 months on the 5th and she isn’t sitting up and doesn’t seem interested at all. She’ll sit on her own for maybe 10 seconds a few times a day. She was born almost a month early so I knew she would hit milestones a little later. I know my pediatrician doesn’t get concerned unless they aren’t sitting up by 8 months.
