The mothers in the group are talking about when the baby will beSittingOne of the mothers said that her son would sit at five months, and the other mother was not convinced, because her son was developing fairly well among his peers, but he would not sit until he was seven months old.
In fact, when it comes to the development of the baby's big movements, parents have heard of it"Three turns, six sittings, eight climbs".Such a saying, to put it simply, many babies only learn to sit at the age of six months, and if they will sit at five months, it is really hard to believe.
Five-month-old babies will sit very little, but it doesn't mean that there are none, after all, each baby develops differently, some are holding and sitting for a while, some are sitting by themselves for a few seconds, and some areFakeWill sit.
The so-called fake sitting refers to the winter is too cold, the baby is dressed thicker, at this time the baby is adjusted to a sitting position, they can indeed sit, but in fact it is thick clothing to support.
Therefore, whether the baby can sit at five months varies from person to person, as long as it is between 5-8 months to learn to sit is within the normal range, and it is not necessary for the baby to learn to sit at 6 months.
Regarding the development of the baby's "sitting", it is written in the book "Play with Great Ability":
At 3 months:The head can be raised upright for a few seconds, and when sitting, the north is arcing;
At 6 months:You can sit alone for a few seconds, but your arms should be supported in front of you
At 7 months:You can sit relatively steadily, and one hand will be taken out to move, and one foot can be moved, and there is a little urge to climb forward;
At 9 months:Can sit up on their own and can sit for 10-15 minutes;
At 12 months:You can change from sitting against a wall to standing, or from standing to sitting.
Therefore, according to the normal development time, the baby can indeed sit at 6 months, but this is also a gradual process, even if the baby will sit at 5 months, parents should not let the baby sit too much, after all, the baby is still small, the development of the lumbar spine is not strong enough.
However, we can use the way of sitting-up training to let the baby sit for a while, on the one hand, it is helpful for development, and on the other hand, it can also improve the baby's intellectual development, because sitting allows the baby to move freely, and it can also allow them to explore more interesting things.
Step 1: Start training at 4 months
Choose when the baby's spirit is better, let the baby lie on his back on a flat object, parents sit facing the baby, and then hold the baby's shoulders with both hands, gently pull the baby forward and up, and let the baby sit up slowly with the strength of the adult.
Step 2: Train like this for 5 months
Let the baby lie flat, parents sit opposite, pull up the baby's arm, slowly pull up the baby's upper body, let the baby slowly lift his head and shoulders with the help of adult strength, and then sit up.
Step 3: 6 months of advanced training
The baby has been able to turn over skillfully, and has their own sit up movements, at this time parents can hold the baby's little hand, let them sit up with strength, some babies can sit for a little longer, some just a few seconds, parents do not need to compare.
Of course, in the process of sitting, if the baby shows upset, crying, or has just finished feeding, parents should not do sitting.
In addition, the action of pulling and sitting training should be gentle, and do not feel that the baby learns to sit a little and increase the strength of the pull, which is easy to hurt the baby.
Finally, when the baby can balance his head well and sit up more smoothly, parents can carry out sitting training, that is, let the baby sit alone on the sofa and the back of the parent for a while.
Here's a reminder that each training session should not be too long2 times a day, 2 minutes at a time, is fine。Parents should understand that babies are individuals, their development is gradual, we don't need to compare our babies with other people's babies, as long as they are in the normal range, there is no problem.
