A. Hello, your baby boy is 8 months old and he doesn’t crawl or sit on his own yet so don’t worry if other milestones are normal then he needs calcium vitamin d3 supplements

Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 5 m old boy3 years ago

A. no need to worry because some times crawling may be absent also 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 massage which will help in strengthening the muscles needed for sitting and crawling. In some cases crawling may be absent in children and directly the 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.
