Sitting up without support

When does your baby start sitting up without support? My LO is 6m old and still requires me to support her when sitting. She gets a little wobbly and can't really balance herself yet. She has yet to flip from her belly to her back. I am worried that her development is delayed. :( #1stimemom #firstbaby #advicepls

I was told tt in order for baby to be able to sit up unsupported, he/she shld have strong neck and back muscles and tt said, flipping and rolling shld usually come first. For mine, my baby flipped from tummy to back since abt 2.5 months and since then has been rolling ard. He started to scoot and crawl at 4-5 months and sit unsupported at 5 months. You may want to check with her PD abt the flipping part but for sitting, it may take up to 8 months for some babies normally. Give her lots of tummy time, it'll help to strengthen her muscles.

Wow you have a really strong baby! :) Yup she's getting tons of tummy time everyday. Whenever she's not feeding or sleeping, she will be on her tummy playing!
