Hi all
My 8.5 month old who was born 38 weeks and was 99th centile and really tall boy too. Normal birth ECS.
I'm bit worried about his gross motor skills
He can:
Sit independently (lean forward and side ways and reach for toys and sit back in the middle. Will sit for ages before either falling or leaning forward too much and sort of falls on his tummy and starts rolling
Rolls both ways
Pivots
Will put arms straight in tummy time
Doing good in fine motor skills too
What I'm worried about:
He can't lay to sit. But does try when I help him a little
He isn't getting in and out of sitting himself yet
He doesn't bare weight in legs for more then a few seconds and therefore doesn't stand supported
Doesn't get up on all 4s.
No crawling and pulling up yet but I know this can come later
Just worried about him reaching those 9month milestone like functional sitting and standing supported as my daughter was at that age
He hated tummy time for ages but getting used to it now I make him do it more now than I used to.
He's babbles, laughs, interactive, raises arms to be picked up and says mamamama and responds to name very well etc and seems to be doing fine in other areas of development
Hoping someone has had a baby similar?
