7 to 9 Month Baby Motor Milestones to Look For

My 9 months, baby should be consistently demonstrating the following milestones:

• 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
