Whose babies are already sitting up?

Mine isn't. I'm wondering when I should expect that.

Whose babies are already sitting up?

 

Rhett isn't yet. I try and sit him up and he locks his legs and pushes himself over. Stinker!

He's sitting supported. And still getting his used to tripoding

He's a supported sitter. He's really good in his Boppy or the corner of the couch.

He's a good supported sitter, and can stay up for a minute of two with his hands on the floor in front of him.

He can sit supported, but he hates his Bumbo.  He straightens his legs and nearly topples over the back. But he can sit unsupported, tripod style, for like 15 seconds.  On a good day, he will use his arms to balance himself for longer before he falls over.

Like others, B can sit supported but hes not really tripoding it yet.

Yes....but very wobbly. She's made about 10 seconds. I would never leave her like that though. If I remember correctly, my son mastered sitting up, on his own by about 6 months.

DS sits supported and will tripod sit for a couple minute if you position him correctly.

Both our boys are great supported sitters.  Bentley has started to try to pull himself up from a reclined position.

Great supported sitter here. He can sit for a few seconds on his own but then actually topples frontward.

Link can for about 30 seconds and then goes into the tripod. (He's 5 months)

6-8 months is average

DS was very early at 4.5 months for unsupported (and was pretty sturdy within a couple weeks), but DD isn't close. She's pretty strong though and doesn't slouch while being supported, and she wants to sit, so I'm thinking it'll be around 5.5-6 months.

It's a 6mo plus milestone. No worries if your baby isn't sitting unsupported.

So mine just did today!  For about 30 seconds.  I wasn't expecting much.  I've been trying to help him do it though because he gets so frustrated laying down and doing tummy time.  I know he wants to just sit up and enjoy the world on his own.  He was so happy today!  I honestly wasn't expecting him to do anything like that until 6months or so.

Patrick sits supported, but unsupported still isn't there.

We haven't tried in a bit so I just tried again with Sophie.  She can sit but has to hold herself up with her arms in front.  I guess this is the tripod position?  I can't believe how quickly babies grow.
