[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Bring it up at the nine month visit. Nine months is the outer limit for sitting securely and getting into the position unassisted. My son did not sit unsupported at nine months and it was our first indication that he had low tone.[/quote] Hmm, now I'm even more worried. I did not realize they were supposed to be getting into the sitting position unassisted yet - wouldn't they need to be crawling well first? Or maybe I'm wrong. He just turned 8 months and is not crawling yet. Sounds like he's more behind than I thought.[/quote] OP, please don't be worried. Your kid isn't behind. 9 Months is the guideline for when kids [b]start[/b] to get themselves in the sitting position: http://www.cdc.gov/ncbddd/actearly/milestones/milestones-9mo.html There's a range of normal. Give your kid some tummy time. He's toppling himself over b/c he's not ready to sit unsupported.[/quote]
