Mom of a 1 yr 3 m old boy1 Year ago

Q.

When is the correct time to introduce sitting position to a baby? My in-laws makes my 3months old baby sit on their lap. He feels comfortable though but i am worried. Will it affect his spine bone? I tell them not to hold that way but they say we have also raised kids and all. Please suggest.

A. you can make the child sit with support after completion of 5 months of age. the thing is that the back of the child should be well supported along with the head as well as the bottom of the child. afdter making the child sit if you see that the child is uncomfortable then kindly avoid sitting of the child again for at least one to two weeks

A. It is very surprising to me where the older people have better knowledge about the growth of their child and why do they make kids sit in the age of three months which is absolutely absolutely not good you should not make your child sit with support before completing the age of six months as act accidentally you can create some problems and do this fine of the child so you need to stop them
