Hi everyone,
I just want to say before anyone tells me to stop worrying, I AM NOT WORRIED about my little one not sitting up yet. He's 7 months old next week and he's a chatterbox, eats like a horse (pretty much fully weaned) and loves tummy time with a passion I cannot even begin to describe. The thing is, I plonk him on his bottom to have a go and he just slides forward onto his belly again, then pushes himself up with his arms (into that 'nearly crawling' position) and laughs. It's very cute, but SHOULD I be encouraging him to sit more? At the moment I'm sort of letting him find his own way rather than pushing him to do it. I sort of feel like if he wants to be on his tummy, then he can be.
First baby, so I'm always looking for a bit of advice on how to encourage him to do new things. He has a bumbo seat which he LOVES and a jumperoo, it's just sitting on the floor that he doesn't seem fond of!
Advice welcome :)
