LO 2 just started sitting at 8 months. We typically don't put them into sitting position very often until they can get there on their own though, so I think that might contribute to being "later" sitters. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-did-your-children-sit#post-2336456 Wed, 28 Oct 2015 06:13:46 +0000 mrswin 2336456@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>About 5.5 months sitting assisted, now at 6 months can sit for an extended period of time but when she decides she is done sitting she just flings herself to the side and "falls" over onto her tummy, we are trying to teach her how to get from sitting to tummy </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-did-your-children-sit#post-2336444 Wed, 28 Oct 2015 05:47:16 +0000 lamariniere 2336444@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO1 about 5.5 months, LO2 more like 6.5 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-did-your-children-sit#post-2336359 Tue, 27 Oct 2015 22:29:23 +0000 Rocker2014 2336359@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>First sturdy sitting was the day before 7 mos. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-did-your-children-sit#post-2336249 Tue, 27 Oct 2015 19:58:37 +0000 rattles 2336249@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>6 months each </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-did-your-children-sit#post-2336238 Tue, 27 Oct 2015 19:52:34 +0000 Nutella 2336238@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>10 months! :shocked: :grin: but only started proper crawling at 12 months and walking at 16 months.

But she's now almost 7 months and I still have to put an arm around her or surround her with pillows because she greatly enjoys flinging herself backwards all the time. Probably because there are always pillows there to flomp onto. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-did-your-children-sit#post-2336043 Tue, 27 Oct 2015 17:01:38 +0000 sapphire 2336043@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Decent by 6 months but still had to be supervised.

She's so dramatic in her 'fall" that she automatically flips to her tummy to try to get where she's going. We aren't crawling/scooting yet but she's so close to that too. I think she will crawl before she sits! ha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-did-your-children-sit#post-2335828 Tue, 27 Oct 2015 14:10:28 +0000 snowjewelz 2335828@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>started to at 5 and can def sit unassisted for however long by 6. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-did-your-children-sit#post-2335827 Tue, 27 Oct 2015 14:10:08 +0000 lilyofthewest 2335827@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just shy of 6mos </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-did-your-children-sit#post-2335824 Tue, 27 Oct 2015 14:09:14 +0000 travellingbee 2335824@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>4 1/2 months he started, he was a solid sitter by 5 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-did-your-children-sit#post-2335819 Tue, 27 Oct 2015 14:06:58 +0000 Mae 2335819@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think around 6.5-7 months or so she could hold herself up if I sat her up. She sat up increasingly long periods of time before flopping over (always dramatically onto her back, sigh). At 7.5 months she figured out how to sit herself up, and immediately was then able to stay sitting pretty much forever it felt like. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-age-did-your-children-sit#post-2335809 Tue, 27 Oct 2015 14:02:02 +0000 LuLu Mom 2335809@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So my DD2 is a late bloomer compared to her older sis (yes I know bad mommy comparing.) So, help me out when did your LO sit fully and unassisted by his/herself? DD2 is just over 7 months old and can sit for a few seconds before tumbling over. </p>
