Outfit your nursery today at Once Upon A Child!Parents are very aware of the motor milestones their baby will meet in their first year of life. Sitting independently is a big one because now your baby can sit alone on the floor and begin to use both hands to grasp and manipulate toys. They can also now sit well in a high chair for feeding, and can sit in a grocery cart safely with supervision. This affords baby a little more independence and offers parents a little reprieve! Sitting independently is typically a 6-month milestone. Keep in mind that some babies achieve this a little earlier and some a little later. The sitting milestone can be affected by their personality – are they active and want to move, or more content and want to observe? The sitting milestone can be affected by the amount of time they have previously spent in the precursor skills (tummy time, feet to mouth, and rolling). PT’s usually recommend lots of floor time play so that babies can work on the precursor skills needed for sitting.
Parents often ask what they can do to help baby sit up independently. The answer starts with making sure they have achieved precursor skills that begin to strengthen the body for the skill of sitting. 2. – Placing a baby on their tummy is a good way to begin to strengthen the muscles on the back of their body (the extensors). 3. – This is a good way for baby to begin to strengthen the muscles on the front of their body (the flexors) 4. – Strengthens the muscles of his trunk as they work together with coordination If your baby is successfully completing the precursor skills, and showing good head control and beginning to show control of their mid-body, you can use the following sitting positions to help them gain control of sitting independently: As your baby becomes an independent sitter, he will soon begin to reach for toys that are farther away, and soon will be able to move from sitting position to his tummy safely using his trunk control.
Here are a few more advanced sitting positions that your baby will discover after they have achieved independent midline sitting: As your baby moves into the more advanced sitting positions, he will begin to weight shift as he attempts to explore his environment. This will take him to the next motor milestone – CRAWLING!Monetary: Monetary donations are accepted to enable With Love, to continue to support children in foster care.
