From what I've read, sitting is a developmental milestone that baby will meet typically around 6 months of age. But as with all development, every baby is different and some may be earlier or later. Quite a few of my friends mentioned that their babies were still learning to sit unsupported after 7 months. You may find this article useful to help encourage your baby to sit on his/her own: http://day2dayparenting.com/help-baby-sit-up-independently/ Mentioned in the article are some precursor skills that baby has to master before he/she could attempt to sit without assistance. For example, strong neck and back muscles to allow baby to hold his/her head steady, and rolling for good trunk muscles. The article provides a list of useful tips how one could help develop the muscles and positions to help baby pick up sitting. Hope this helps!

I let my baby sit on the highchair from 5 months. She can't exactly sit up straight but I let her play around in the chair so when we start her at meals in her 6th month she will already be comfortable with the chair
thanks! im just afraid it may hurt her back...but seems fine ya? i saw some babies cant sit without support yet also on the high chair..as high chair has back and arm support..so i guess its safe? thanks for your reply!
Most recommend waiting until a baby is 6 months old before using a high chair.
It’s normal at that age. Let bb develop by his own pace
