When can babies sit with support?

Babies usually start sitting with support between 4-7 months. At this stage, you can sit your baby in your lap, in a high chair, or with supports like pillows or nursing pillows. What's important is that your baby can hold their head up and keep it stable. Supported sitting helps develop your baby's back and neck muscles, but don't force it. If your baby leans forward, tips to the side, or gets fussy, they're not ready yet. Every baby is different; some can sit comfortably at 5 months while others might take until 7. If your baby can hold their head steady for a few seconds when upright, you can try supported sitting. Remember, unsupported sitting usually develops between 6-9 months — supported sitting is the earlier skill. If there are concerns like prolonged crying, feeding refusal, or significant sleep changes, consulting a pediatrician or child psychologist is helpful.
