Hello, my little boy will be 7 months on the 26th Aug. He can sit assisted and can sit on his own for about 10 seconds but still not stable. He can also roll into his back to his front but everytime he does it he Cries after a few seconds as get stuck. He seems to not enjoy being on his tummy anymore and kicks his legs but can't seem to push up on his arms.
I know all babies are different but Just wondered if anyone else's babies were the same. I've seen that some are crawling already and he is nowhere near this! Should i try and do more tummy time? I was just googling the crabs to see if that will keep him entertained!
Thank you

My little girl is 7 months on the 23rd and she is the same with the sitting. She also has only rolled twice a couple of weeks ago, from back to front which I think were both complete flukes 🤣
She has always hated tummy time and doesn’t seem to know what to do with her arms! We bought the moving snail and it helps a little, she will keep her head up and push a bit with the hands to watch it for a few minutes. The only time she cries is tummy time! She’s been the most chilled and contented baby since birth so I’m not going to stress her out for the sake of it. I’m enjoying every minute of a non mobile baby and she’s in no rush 😂
All babies really are different - my eldest was rolling front to back at 2.5months, sitting at 5.5 months and crawling at 7 months, but she didn’t walk until 18 months!

My girl turned 7 months on the 15th. On the 4th August she learnt to roll back to tummy and she hates tummy time. She then realised how to lay on her tummy with her head down so she can rest in tummy time and that helped her enjoy it more. She the learnt to roll tummy to back last week and can now connect the 2 to roll across a room 🙈 the past 3 days she has also started trying to get up on her knees to try and crawl. It all happened very quickly!

My son is also the 26th & everything you have said is exactly where we are at. xx

My son was 7 month yesterday and is exactly the same as your little boy!
He can sit assisted and for short period alone. But rolling wise can only roll back to tummy one way and cries as he gets stuck there too!
Try not to worry and don’t stress at what other babies are doing! I was worried but They all do it in their own time! 😊💕
