My 9 months, baby should:
• Sits without support
• Sits and reaches for toys without falling
• Moves from tummy or back into sitting
• Starts to move with alternate leg and arm movement e.g. creeping, crawling
• Picks up head and pushes through elbows during Tummy Time
• Turns head to visually track objects while sitting
• Shows more control while rolling and sitting
• Picks up small objects with thumbs and fingers
• In simple play imitates others
Use Pathways.org resources to track baby’s milestones and help identify potential early motor difficulty. If you notice your baby is not meeting their 7-9 month motor milestones, contact their health care provider.
