Hi,

My little one is 5 months and looking like he getting ready for sitting up soon, so Im thinking he may do it earlier than my first. My first baby sat at 7 months I think. Can you let me know what age all of your babies sat up?

hi ya my lo sat up on his own at 51/2 months he didnt need any help in doing it he had one of them rings they sit in with the activity bars over top he was laying back and then just pulled himself to the sitting position now he is 61/2 months and sits up well on his own

i think my lo was about 5 months too, he could do it for short periods at first and then one day i was sat just next to him and realised he's been like that playing for about an hour, i hadn't realised the time had passed so quick so was shocked when i realised!!

it's amazing how quick they grow. i was looking back at some newborn pics of my 2 year old the other day and got a bit sad that he's 2 already, don't know how he got to be that age so soon!! i'm looking forward to him teaching his baby brother some things though, it will be lovely to see how they get on (hopefully!!) when they're about 2 and 4 years old. casper already can't wait to teach alex to kick a football and has asked me to buy him some shoes so he can play in the back garden with him and daddy!! he's so funny, he never stops talking!!

sorry to hijack your thread steph, just got all sentimental for a minute there!!

I know what you mean Kelly, I feel im treasuring the baby moments more this time because I know how quickly they grow and you can forget little things from when they were little. x

5 months for Mia too, but with a few pillows on standby

Imogen is 7 mths and has just started to sit completely by herself with no help at all.

i think i have a lazy baby! he just falls sideways!!! he is good on his legs standing and in walker etc, i think i need to encourage him more! xxx

Thanks girls, gosh some of your babies sat quite early then. I think I should give Hayden a bit more encouragement and see what happens.....

isaac is 7 months and has just started sitting on his own, although he does fall sideways occasionaly, my oldest boy was 7 months too and my 2 girls were 5 1/2 months.

hayleys - that made me laugh. bless ur lo!! lol. Mines only 6 weeks so i don't know yet yet can't wait to see all his little firsts xx

Hi,

Joshua has been sitting unaided for between 5-10mins depending on whats keeping him entertained for a week now and he's 25 weeks old. I have to out him into the sitting position he hasnt started crawling yet or anything. Its lovely seeing him sat up and he seems to really enjoy it xxx

Hi

Olivia is 20 weeks old and last week started sitting up on her own unaided. She absolutely loves sitting up now and almost screams the house down if I lay her down!
