Sitting up before rolling?

Question

Did anyone elses little one learn to sit independently before they mastered rolling over? My son is now sitting for up to 5 minutes independently at 4 months old! He rolls from tummy to back but only on my bed so i dont consider him to be rolling fully yet as he struggles on firmer surfaces. He rolls from back in to side lying but not from back to belly yet either. Picture of my little man for cute tax. (No i dont let him sit up unless im around and able to catch him if he falls)

Answer

I wouldn’t be worried! I’m a pediatric OT and this wouldn’t be concerning to me. He’s still young! Rolling will come, just encourage lots of tummy time and laying down play. There’s nothing wrong with sitting, start working on some weight shifting and stuff too so he begins to reach and prop himself in this position so you don’t have to referee for falls so much 😊

Answer

My little boy is 6 months this week & literally rolled for the first time (back to front) on Thursday 😁

Answer

Sitting babies up prematurely prevents them from rolling, twisting, scooting, or doing much of anything else. When an infant is placed in this position before she is able to attain it independently, she usually cannot get out of it without falling, which does not encourage a sense of security or physical confidence.
The babies playing this way look as if they’re pinned to the floor, immobile from the waist down. While other infants are moving their limbs freely on their backs, rolling from back to tummy, and beginning to pivot, scoot, or army crawl, the seated babies can only bend at the trunk to reach objects of interest. If a toy rolls out of reach, the seated babies must depend on an adult to get it back.  Of course, infants are brilliantly adaptive. Babies routinely placed in this position learn to swivel around in a circle and eventually mobilize themselves by scooting on their bottoms which is an atypical crawling type. 
Natural progressing of gross motor skills: rolling- scooting- crawling- sitting-cruising- walking.

My baby is 6 m old and scoots all over the place. By 4 months he was rolling both ways… but he still doesnt sit. Now he barely started sitting for like 1 minute straight. All babies are different just keep leaving him in the floor to do his thing

Answer

Firstly what a cute little boy! 
My LO was 6 months this week and is opposite, he’s been rolling since 4 months both ways and is super close to crawling however can’t sit alone yet 😅 Iv been working on it this week and it’s worked somewhat however he’s still learning to crawl so hoping the sitting comes after this. Babies are so different with development it’s interesting to see.
