I was kinda thinking either they can sit unsupported untill they choose not to or lean for a toy etc. I voted No even though Jay can do it for a few second, but he will not stay sitting for more than that and he falls over (unintentionally).
I answered NO...he will usually end up leaning forward to get his toes. Or he'll tip to the side. But like if he's sitting on my lap, he can hold himself up with no problems. I would need to see him do it on purpose for longer than he does to honestly answer YES.
I think it's coming very soon though so I'm not at all worried. Just anxious to use the clip on booster seat we got for when we are at other homes/restaurants and the Jump and Jive - both require LO to sit unassisted.
I guess that's my answer there - if I won't use those items then he does NOT sit unassisted. (Sorry, I kind of talked in circles here)
Julia just started sitting unsupported in few minute intervals this week. Everyday she lasts a little longer before leaning over! Today she even caught herself leaning over and pushed herself back up!

DS is sitting up for probably a few minutes at a time. He does best if you hold toys out in front of him for him to grab. I think it distracts him. We tried putting him in a restaurant high chair for the first time this weekend, but he wasn't quite ready for that yet, just not enough support and too long for him to sit up on his own.
Strangely though, he has yet to roll back to tummy and very rarely rolls tummy to back. He's starting to scoot a tiny bit (like army crawl) and trying to push up on hands and knees, although he's not strong enough yet. I'm wondering if he's going to skip rolling over!
Last night DD started to sit unsupported - and she was sitting for a while. Today she whined if she was in any position other than sitting up on her own. She still doesn't roll over though.

This, I answered yes, because I figured 30 seconds is a long time in baby-time
