My daughter is 1 year 20days old.When she sits she put her both hands by her side as support. If we keep one her hand away she can sit with the help of one hand support. But she cant sit without support. She stands with the help of support. She can walk with the support. Her back muscles are soft. Her legs are strong enough. She can roll but not crawling but trying. What to do? Kindly suggest.
