Mine doesn’t put himself in seated position but if I put him he has gradually sat up longer and longer.

I used boppy but mainly lots of floor time like 3x per day. I put him in sitting position, I sit behind him, sit him in the sofa. He sat up on his own for the first time on a bed of all places lol. Just keep trying, she will do it soon!

Our physiotherapist said to sit them up and lean them on their hands so they know to out hands out to stop falls, to put something eye level in between their legs and to keep doing 1.5h of tummy time to build the core strength which is apparently #1 for sitting, standing and crawling

I would kinda just sit him up and let him hold onto my fingers he would pull himself and over time I’m guessing that it strengthened his core for him to do it on his own he kinda just did it one day at my parents house and I didn’t believe it till I saw him do it at home the next day he was crawling at 5 months
