When is a baby suppose to sit on their own?

Sitting was a huge concern for me with my son. He didn't start sitting unassisted until he was 8 months plus. I figured out it wasn't that he couldn't do it, he just didn't want to. He had better things to do and other ways to get around or get what he wanted. It was a growing concern for me and then one day he just did it whenever he pleased, like he always knew how. It was weird. So you really can't become concerned. If you ever do, talk to your doctor, it can never hurt to ask. But, it is really hard to say ALL babies walk at this age, or crawl at that age. ALL BABIES ARE 100% DIFFERENT. Daryn was so late for sitting, but he's walking and he just had his birthday a few days ago. He could crawl at 4 months, too. So, it really depends. But if you do want your baby to learn to do something, you need to work at it as much as possible, without making it a headache for both you, and her. Hope that helps.
