A. sitting without support and crawling in children may sometimes come after one year of age also. if the growth of the child is proper no need to worry. just take care of regular diet and baby maxssage which will help in strengthening the muscles needed for sitting and crawling. in some cases crawling may be absent in children and directly txhe child will begin to stand with support and later walk with support and then without support. take a medical check up done to confirm if there is need of any intervention.
