When Do Babies Start Sitting?
Hi,
My baby is 6 months 11 days old (baby boy). His name is Siddhant. He is a very active baby specially from the last 2 months. His teeths have come (lower first). He is actively rolling across the bed and trying all sorts of things to crawl but he has not yet tried sitting. whenever we give him the option or allow him to sit he just rolls back. Is it too early to worry about this?
My next query is his regarding his feeding. He us breast feed and started having solid once he completed 6 months. Started it with mashed bannana and latter apple in the same format mixed with Nan 2. Can I have a chart which I can follow to start introducing him different food/cereals etc.
Thanks

Thanks for the query.
Sitting will develop around 4 to 7 months.
Start with liquids first like rice water, dal pani, palak soup, tomato soup.
Then you can add semisolid like you have mentioned.
Khichdi, kanji, smashed potato, upma from 8 to 9 months onwards.
Start one thing at a time then after 7 to 10 days add other food item.
Hope i helped you.
