A. a baby will start Sitting with support by 6 months of age and by 7 to 8 months baby will sit without support than by 9 months usually baby crawls and in 10 months baby will stand with support. After 12 to 15 months baby will start to Walking independently and sometimes it may take even longer but in no case any Walker should be avoided as it can cause recurrent fall injury and delay in the walking because the child lacks confidence of walking independently.

A. hello actually if you baby is not at all able to sit in a proper position even though if you give the some kind of support also then it is the matter of concern once try consulting a doctor for some supplements might be due to some deficiency it happens or else no need to worry just try to motivate your baby give a good massage and give good in take of food
