help for my lazy son!

[mibbious]

Hi, I have a 9 month old boy, and he still I sitting up. I know he can do it, but he's lazy! I'm hoping some kind person out there has a support pillow/cushion or something suitable to sit him in without supporting his upper back - if that makes sense. Ive been told that it will help to encourage him etc.

I would appreciate any help

hi,

i would say speak to your gp/health visitor for advice rather than listening to others (assuming the advice isnt from them already) and to rule out any underlying causes.

i reckon he is too young to be lazy... he might be concentrating on learning something else! babies vary so much in their development.

Thankyou for your reply, but I have spoken to them. He has the ability to sit up, but he'd rather lie on his back and wait to be picked up, hence the "lazy"

ah, apologies for assuming!

My son is 6 months and has a Bumbo for him to sit up in, I bought it on here for ?10, it's come in handy as he is too big for the bouncer.
