Alfie is 6 months now and still refuses to sit unaided. I have a bumbo which he spends quite alot of time in and i sit him on the floor holding him/or supported between my legs and hes fine. Then as soon as i move away he just seems to slouch and throw himself backwards. Im not sure whether its cos he cant do it or just wont and is lazy?

I thought he was meant to be able to sit unaided by 6 months?

Lewis is almost 6m and he cant yet and my neice is 7m and only just. I wouldnt worry they all do things at different stages x

I think ava was about 6 months but pretty wobbly and about 7 months completely stable. As Amanda said that's just a guide and Alfie will do it in his own time, x

babies are defo different x
Callum could sit unaided by 5months but its taken him to 15months to walk so i wouldnt worry xx

5 months wobbly and 6-7 totally steady for c but again like others have said they are all different, she spoke by 8 but didnt walk til nearly 17. I wouldnt worry too much

Like the others say hun - don't worry - they all do things at different stages. Thomas sat up at 5 1/2 months wobbly and 6 months steady and was quite quick with the crawling/walking/running stages but even now at 22 months doesn't talk that well.

6 months for short periods and very wobbly. She was 7 or 8 months before she was steady and confident.

Bethany was about 6 months old but again like the others have said was wobbly. Don't they (ie books) say the average is between 6-8 months.

he "could" sit un aided at 7 months but was very wobbley. my doctor told me 8 months was normal age for it... and by 8 months he was quite confident but still had the odd tumble

Flick was 7 months.
She was pretty wobbly from about 6 months then one day she just sat up all by herself x
She didn't crawl until about 10 months and has only been walking for about a monthx xxx

7months+
She didnt roll until 6 mths + and I thought she was behind physically but then she took off, sitting at 7mths (probably nearer 8 by time was confident), crawling at 8-9mths, pulled to stand at 10mths and first steps at 11.5mth.

If you'd told me at 6mths when she could barely roll that she would have been walking before 1 id have laughed in your face. Theyre all so different and do things at different pace.

Oliver was 5mth wobbly then 6mth okay, unless he got distracted then he'd topple. But my LO didn't crawl until 12mth

do you know I can't remember It's amazing how quickly you forget things, but like the others have said, don't worry babies will do things in their own time x

I only remembered when I loooked at photos with the date on

i would say elijah is still wobbly but well on his way to sitting up - however still showing no interest in rolling and is happy to just lie on his back and wait for things to come to him - from his pics alfie looks really capable on his side whereas eli just freaks out - theres only a few weeks between them but they will pick different things up at different times

cheers. just thinking that he may be getting a little lazy. his rolling just suddenly came one day and some days he rolls from back to front and vice versa whereas others he cries (deffo laziness).

I want to get him in his highchair so i can get him on finger food but dont want to put him in it until he sits up ok! x
