Preemies

When did lo sit up

Reid is only sitting up for a few seconds by himself.  If he's sitting in your lap he sits himself up but on the floor he doesn't seem to do it, seems to be a tonal issue.  Going to get a pt eval, we have ot right now.  He was a 24 week micro preemie.  TIA

Re: When did lo sit up

  • You don't have a ticker so I can't see how old Reid is, but my kids were 25 weekers and they sat unassisted at about 10 1/2 months actual (7 1/2 months adjusted).

    I haven't figured out how to get a ticker.  Reid was a 24 weeker.  He is 9 months actual and just over 5 months adjusted.  I should have included that.  

    He has a grade 3 ivh that has been stable and he was a micro preemie.  I know he will do some things slower I'm looking for preemies of similar age (like yours) to give me an idea.  Thanks!

  • Probably at about 6 months adjusted for Andrew he could sit for longer periods of time on his own. It took a month or so to really get it (so between 10-11 months actual). Reid sounds on track to me!

  • 7-8 months adjusted! (26-weeker)
  • My 29 weeker was around 9 months actual, 10.5 actual when he crawled.

  • My dd Cyrus was a 25 weeker, and will be 1 on the 27th (I guess that would make her about 9 months adjusted). She still isn't sitting up completely unassisted. She can however roll, crawl, and stand (while holding on to something). I am willing to bet hers is a tonal issue as well, since she is strong enough to do all of those other things, I think she just needs help with her back muscles. Our PT eval is next week though...so I think PT would be a good idea for you guys too!
