My son was born in 34.5 weeks. He is now 8 months old. Weighted 8.2 kg. He roll over, sit with support, sometimes move backwards on tummy time and walk backwards in walker too. He listen when we call his name. Interact with us with smile. Looks in mirror too.
Question - he doesn't crawl and sit for few secs without support.
Should I be concerned?
