My baby is learning to sit!

Yeah, like zweeb mentioned, kids that age are very flexible. So don't worry too much about it. Though you'd better not let him sit up for too long until he can sit properly. Every baby wants to look around and see the world. Supporting is fine too. How old is he? Don't rush him just because you think it's time. Each baby have their own time. Just because some babies sit up at his age does not mean that he will be. Some babies skip a developmental stage. My two daughters almost skip the sitting stage. They started crawling in a matter of days after sitting up. I was starting to worry that they are late development-wise, but they ended up to be early crawlers and early walkers. My point is that, let your baby decide when he is ready to go onto the next stage, with an encouragement from you. And remember that every mother wants their baby to be faster.

I think,It's a good tropic but it's not correct to submit such a kind of photo...I'm really shocked!!!!!!!!!!!!it can hit many hearts..

It's alright as that's the process of him learning to sit. He'll find his way around, don't worry too much!~Oh ya, we had a feeding pillow earlier which is some sort like a U-shape so that helped him to support a little when he sits in the middle

It's fine to let him lean forward. It will not hurt him. Babies are flexible. Congrats on your baby's latest development! Enjoy each moment with him. How many months old is he by the way?

First of all, how old is your baby? A baby often wants to sit from age 2 - 3 months old. A good way is to let the baby have supporting pillows leaning with its on them. Something which is strengthening the back muscles is to let the baby lay on his/her belly on a blanket on the floor. It will make the baby to want to lift its head along with trying to use its arms and legs. It is a really good muscle training. If the does not want to lay on its belly.... I used to lay myself on my belly on the floor holding my head in the same height as my baby. I did peek a boo. It was a smiling happy time.

don't worry too much. its part of childhood. let him enjoy it just make sure you sit behind him to support him in case he lean forward to prevent him from being hurt.

Ya i know what you mean. At that age it does not look comfortable. Many you should sit him ina seat of somekinD. Where he has more back support. Besides pillows would not be recommended in leaving him alone even for just a minute.

I always thought you just waited until they figured it out on their own. I know my Aunt used to put her fingers out to her boys while they were lying on the floor & when they grasped her fingers, she'd slowly pull them up into a sitting position before picking them up. She thought it gave them the reference that they were going to be picked up when they sat up. It didn't take them long after that to figure it out!!!

Im a father of two , when my eldest do like that i only assist him until she can manage to do so.

Let your baby be and your baby will be a baby. Just monitor and stay close just in case your little one needs a helping hand. My son learned to sit up and crawl all in the same month. I was so amazed. Now he's so anxious to walk and I support him. Me and his sister hold him up while he get the feel for his feet
