Late bloomer

My little girl is 8 months old and still not sitting unaided for more than a few seconds.
I know all babies are different and go at their own pace, and I'm not going to worry just yet... she was late at rolling, she wasn't rolling both ways until 7 months old, and she's always hated tummy time. I suspect that's why she was a late roller. She's also very lazy!
I just wondered if anyone else has a late bloomer? And how old were your babies when they sat up, crawled, walked etc? Thanks ☺️

I don't think my 14 month old could roll over at 8 months, I remember being a bit concerned and speaking to the HV about it, who really didn't seem overly concerned. He was/is a big baby so we thought that factored in. I don't think he could do much at all till almost a year, then went from crawling to standing to walking in weeks. He is into everything now!

My Hv is the same, said not to be concerned. She's only weight bearing for a few seconds as well.
I thought it was because she's big too, she's 22lb.
It's just nice to know I'm not the only one! It's frustrating to see much smaller babies sitting up and weight bearing better.
