Baby notsitting without support at 9mont
Hello,
My baby is 9 months old and he still needs support to sit , he is 7.4kgs, I am worried if he is very late in sitting, as many people have told babies sit by 6-7 months.
Is his weight normal for 9 months?
Please advise on the sitting milestone, is he too late? What can I do?
