Learn How Your Baby's Sitting Skills Unfold
Here’s what you can expect to see as your baby's sitting skills develop…
Do Baby Seats Help Babies Learn to Sit?
Baby seats don't teach sitting skills. Babies develop sitting through tummy time and floor practice. It's normal for babies to balance in placed sitting before they can get into sitting on their own. Baby seats can be convenient positioning tools but are optional. Prioritize tummy time and floor practice as the foundation for sitting development.
Is “W” Sitting Bad For Baby’s Hips?
W sitting is not harmful when it's one of many positions your child uses. It doesn't cause hip dysplasia. Only address W sitting if your child uses this position almost exclusively and resists alternatives, which can indicate trunk weakness or lead to muscle imbalances. Encourage position variety through modeling and playful prompts rather than constant corrections.
