A. If the neck is stable then you can make him sit with support. Sitting, the infant learns to control his body in the sitting position from the age of five months onwards. Initially make your child sit with pillow support and gradually the baby will gain control over the body and starts sitting independently by the age of 8 months and sit steady keeping back straight. By the age of 10 months, the baby can pull himself up from the supine position to sitting position .

A. no I would suggest not to do this as the age of development of this mile stone is 6 months so you must wait till this age when your child becomes 6 months old.so all the best for you and your child
