A. You can give banana, potatoes, sweet potatoes and continue feeding breastmilk or formula. You can add homemade ghee in babys regular meals. You can also give warm rice mixed with curd around eight months. All these could help weight gain. Generally babies roll over around 6 to 7 months. Some may roll over early in 4 or 5 months. The baby's neck and arm has to get that strength to roll over. So it varies with every baby. Likewise Usually babies sit around four to seven months. By eight months most if them would be able to sit without support for few minutes. But this is not a definite rule and some babies can have a delay in reaching milestone. This doesn't necessarily mean any problem. Your baby should get her muscles strong enough to balance herself and it could differ with each baby. So keep encouraging her to sit by keeping pillows on her sides. She should be sitting soon.

Q. #AskTheExpert. My baby is 6 month old now. She is not interested in rolling over from back to tummy. If put on tummy, she can roll over to back. She is more interested in sitting and playing than laying down. She can sit max 1 min without support. Is this delayed milestone? How can I make her interested to roll over?
