We sometimes don’t see or understand the negative impact of Baby Sitting and in ignorance parents sometimes take such steps which are considered to be not a very good idea for the babies. Many Parents have the hobbies of taking pictures of their Babies in different dresses and styles. And while taking the picture they put their babies to sit up on the sofa or couch with pillow support for a while. Which can be a reason for the baby uncomfortable during the photo session and back pain.

When you see that your baby can hold his head upon his own and trying to sit of bed or chair without any support. Babies start putting their head up when they are 3 or 4 months old but the right age of sitting up would be around 7 to 8 months, which may vary as per your baby.

When babies are around 7 to 8 months old they are fit to sit independently. They start learning to sit when they are 6 months but it’s very important for parents not to force babies before that.

Due to impatience, the biggest mistake new parents do is to start putting their little baby in a sitting position, which also without knowing its side effect. Don’t be in a hurry to put your baby in a sitting position, it will happen naturally.
