A. 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 muscless needed for sitting and crawling. in some cases crawling may be absent in children and directly the childd 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.

A. Hello mom This is quite normal. Some babies do this and with the time they start crawling properly so you should definitely not worry about it at all. If your baby is active and taking proper meals on time then every thing is fine and nothing to worry about. You should just try to keep babies favourite toy in front of baby. It will help us and attract baby to move forward.
