My 9 month baby can sit on his own but at times he will arch n fall flat on his back. Any of your babies does that? Any concern

I thot it is oni my baby.. lol! My 9mth old boy is so strong! He will juz push himself backwards when he is seated... we realised tat when someone is behind him, he will purposely do it. So i trained him by telling ppl not to sit behind him or support him by our arms/hands. I put pillow behind him, on e playmat. He will still do it but e number of times is decreasing. So i dare him by stopping to put any pillows behind him anymore. I put him on a playmat. He did it purposely again and of cos he knocked his head on e mat. This is when i start to scold him. Den he realises it is painful den he stops doing it so frequently already. Have to train.

Maybe he is too excited? I realised my boy would fall when he was younger because he was too excited n lose his balance

Yes it's very normal. What i will do is to put cushions around him to lessen the impact

Very normal. Just try to look out or put baby at the mat area

my baby also did that when he could sit on his own.

Yup happened to my kiddo.
