At what age does baby start sitting?

The real reply from the in-app AI advisor

Babies typically start supported sitting between 4-6 months and learn to sit without support between 6-8 months. At first they sit leaning on their hands (tripod position), then as their abdominal and back muscles get stronger, they can sit upright. If your baby cannot sit unsupported by 9 months, consulting a pediatrician is recommended. Supporting your baby with pillows during this process and doing plenty of tummy time helps develop their muscles.
