My seven-month-old baby can't sit steadily. What's going on?

Mom and dad play a very important role in the baby's growth process, because when the baby has problems, mom and dad can discover and take measures in time. So why can't the baby sit steadily at seven months old? For this question, we must analyze it according to the specific situation of each baby. Next, let us understand why the baby cannot sit steadily at seven months old?

For babies aged 6-8 months, their spine, back and waist have gradually grown stronger, so rolling over and sitting up is a natural development of continuous movements. Usually the baby will first lean back in a half-lying, half-sitting position, then lean forward slightly and support himself with his hands on both sides. But if he falls over, he will not be able to sit up on his own until he is 8 months old. At this time, the mother can put some toys in front of the baby to lure him to grasp them. The forward force can gradually train the baby's sitting ability. Mothers should not let their babies sit for too long. The baby's spine has not yet fully developed. If he sits for a long time, it will be detrimental to the development of the spine. When your baby is sitting, do not let him kneel with his legs forming a W shape or with his legs pressed under his buttocks, as this can easily affect the development of his legs. The best posture is to sit cross-legged with your legs crossed and facing forward.

Adults can hold the baby's arms to help him sit down. You can exercise more often in your daily life. In addition, each child develops at a different speed, depending on their individual physical constitution. Now you can add more complementary foods to your baby to increase nutritional intake.

If a 7-month-old baby cannot sit, it may be related to exercise or it may be caused by calcium deficiency. Sitting alone practice: When the child can sit independently stably, you can focus on training the child's balance ability. Let the child sit alone on the bed or floor, and train the child to turn his head and look around while sitting. You can also prepare a suitable small stool so that when the child sits on it, his feet can just touch the ground, and the angles of the soles of the feet and calves, the calves and thighs, and the thighs and torso are all at right angles. Parents should hold their children's thighs with their hands, not their backs, and let them find their own balance. After the child sits up straight, the adult can try to release one hand and only use one hand to hold one of the child's thighs, and use the other hand to attract the child to turn his head and look for the toy. Alternate left and right to induce the child to turn left and right, find the balance point while learning to turn, and practice using the feet to support the body. Take your baby to the hospital to check trace elements or bone alkaline phosphatase, and supplement calcium according to the situation. Eat more calcium-rich foods and get more sun exposure to promote calcium absorption.

Babies can eat walnuts, but they should eat less. Because walnuts are high in fat, eating too much can cause indigestion. The main components of walnuts are plant protein, unsaturated fatty acids, 18 kinds of amino acids, lecithin, riboflavin, carrots, carbohydrates, vitamin E, vitamin B1, vitamin C and trace elements such as calcium, zinc, manganese, magnesium, iron and phosphorus. Eating walnuts regularly can improve the body's immunity; lecithin can enhance memory, improve brain function, soften blood vessels and lower blood lipids; zinc, magnesium and manganese can nourish the kidneys and strengthen the essence; vitamin E, vitamin C and iron can make the skin rosy, fair, delicate and smooth; calcium can promote the physical development of children.

The above explains why the baby cannot sit steadily at seven months old. We can see that there are many reasons. If your baby also has the problem of sitting steadily, you can analyze them one by one according to the above reasons. Once you know the reason, the problem becomes very easy to solve, and mom and dad will live more at ease.
