Curious!
ETA: I mean pushing up into a sitting position from laying down. Not just sitting unassisted

I think it was around 6 months.
-
He sat up on his own at 5 mths. He didnt push himself up to sitting until 9 months.
-
DS at 4 months and DD around 6 months.
-
It took her a really long time. Around 9 months I think!
-
If the incline was favorable, she was able sit up by herself and with her back assisted at around 5 months. She wasn't able to control her backward fall until about 7 months, like if she leaned back too much, she would just fall backwards. So I would say sitting fully unassisted by 7 months.
-
We are almost 8 months and she hasn't done it. She still can't sit unassisted even but can crawl.
-
@delight: LOL M's a pro sitter but can't crawl!
M is 8 months and can't push up into a sitting position.
-
It was 8-9 months, don't remember exactly, before she could pull herself to sitting.
-
I think somewhere around like 7 months? It was just before she started crawling.
-
@delight: it's so neat seeing the things they pick up quickly and other things they decide can wait!
My LO will be 7 months on the 12th & can't pull hherself to sitting yet.
-
@Mrs. Sunshine: yes babies are amazing creatures! Watching them reach, or try to reach milestones is awesome. Never a dull moment!
@lawbee11: I've started showing L pictures if your M. I'm like "See? M is sitting nicely in a shopping cart, it's about time you do the same!"
-
She started being able to get in the seated position by herself from lying down about 7.5 months. She has gotten much better at it since being able to crawl
-
@Pepper: R just did it the other day!
-
I think around 8 months
-
@lawbee11: Same! He's a great sitter, but can't crawl. He's 9 months and doesn't push up to sit just yet.
-
10 months. DS has a ginormous head!
-
7 months for charlie. it was definitely way later for olive... 9-10 months?
-
@Katrocap: hahaha, R has an enormous head as well.
-
Around 7 months
-
Right at 7 months.
-
7 months actual 5.5 adjusted
-
I think sometime after 9 months for Xander.
-
4 or 5 months, I think.
I have a photo I snapped of Chloe the first time she sat up on her own. I had turned around, and when I looked at her again she was sitting and not laying on the floor LOL I was like "howwww did you get there?!"
-
If he's on a slight incline, he could use his stomach muscles to pull himself up into sitting position around 7 months. He's almost 9 months and can't pull himself up completely from a complete lay down, but he'll try. He'll get himself into a pike position, but can't leverage it to fully sit up. If I give him my two forefingers to grasp onto, he can pull himself up to a sitting position and then into a standing position.
-
E is 8.5 months and can't do this yet. I'm relieved to see it's pretty normal!
-
It wasn't until 11m for my LO. But then LO is still not crawling... So I guess he is just late when it comes to things like this.
-
@Alivoo01: This is exactly where LO is at. He can do it with minimal assistance, but can't quite get it on his own.
