Baby still not rolling, help?
My baby is 6 months old- will be 7 by the end of this month but he’s still not rolling without assistance
When he sits up he can do so unassisted for some period of time and then when he falls will go onto his belly on tummy time but I am not seeing him actively roll either way?
He has only rolled tummy to back twice
I put him on tummy time heaps and help him practice but he just seems like he doesn’t want to?
He tries rolling to the side.. I don’t know if I should be concerned

Mine is just over 7 months, sits unassisted, has started trying to crawl and pull himself toward standing and still doesn’t roll either I spoke to our paediatrician and she said rolling isn’t actually an official milestone and not to worry about it as long as he’s not showing any other signs of delayed development or other physical issues Every baby is different
Is he a chubby baby? It's literally a thing that chubby babies often roll a bit later. More body to move around

Our first rolled a couple of times and didn't roll again until he could crawl. It was almost as if he was like...oh now I understand why I needed that skill 🤣 He's currently 3 years old and very physically active and strong. So unless there are other things too that you feel aren't happening that should be, I wouldn't be too worried... But that's just from my one experience and an unprofessional opinion.
