Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children3 years ago

A. the child will start to sit with support by age of 5-6 months without support by age of 7-8 months,able to crawl by 9-10 months and walk independently only after one year of age till then wait n watch at times certain babies may skip the milestone of crawling and will begin to stand with support and then without support and work independently thereafter which is considered as normal you should not worry. at times the milestones can get delayed or achieved early also. variation can be commonly seen in the particular age group according to the growth pattern of the baby.. but if it is delayed beyond the range then you should consult doctor to get your baby e HD e once and for clearing the doubts.

A. A child learns to sit independently by the age of eight months only after that by the age of nine of the crawling is going to come into picture so you can wait for some more time maybe 15 to 20 days yet if the sitting there is not happen independently then you should get a check with your paediatriWrite Your Answer Here
