When to the child four or five months are executed, many parents have a question – whether it is necessary to put it already? On the one hand, he still seems too small and has obviously no desire to skryuchivat a back. On the other hand, the neighbor says that her five-months kid is already able to sit if to enclose him under a bottom a pillow. And the acquaintance of the cousin says that she began to teach the child to sit down even earlier. And if to listen to others, it is necessary only to be upset – really the kid lags behind in development?
Boys are seated before girls?
If parents do not interfere with development, independently kids begin to sit differently. If they try to help, then it is useful to know – boys can be seated slightly earlier, than girls. At the age of 3-4 months it is possible to arrange for the child a soft bed from pillows to imitate a semi-sedentary pose. It does not create load of a backbone, but helps a back to get used to such situation.
For kids this skill – an important step in knowledge of a situation which surrounds them. When at last it turns out to sit, without resting hands against a floor, the child finds a possibility of development of new games and fascinating classes. Not to suffer doubts, the best option is not to listen to neighbors and acquaintances of relatives, and to talk to the doctor who observes the kid. Most likely, council will be such: it is necessary to arrive depending on natural development of the kid so that not to go counter to his physical capacities and desire.
From when parents begin to seat the child, his health in the future in many respects depends therefore very much you should not be zealous.
What for ability will sit the most important
Before seating the child, it is necessary to pay attention to how at it it is developed bone and muscular systems. That the kid could sit independently, the organism has to be prepared at first. If not to allow muscles to become stronger properly, the backbone and other bones will receive excessive loading that can affect health not in the best way.
Absolutely small children have a soft backbone and very easy cartilages, under loading they easily move a little, and the backbone because of it can be bent.
Completely healthy child in the physical relation independently begins to sit down when his bones and muscles are well prepared. To sit, at first it is necessary to learn to hold the head. At the age of four months it is possible to begin to seat for a while the child on a soft surface. In five months he will sit in pillows already rather surely. The norm is considered when the kid can exactly sit down in 6-7 months. The organism of the child is ready to loading when he tries to sit down. It should not interfere even if it will seem to you too early. Of course, at the beginning the child will do it uncertainly, but gradually at it it will turn out best of all and best of all.
