I would have thought by now that he should at least be sitting up and rolling over by about 9 months.  Boys develop differently to girls, so the weight isn't really a surprise, but if he looks bulkier and has trouble moving because of that, then his weight could be holding him down.

How is he in other areas of developement?  Is he more advanced in some areas?  Getting assessed by a child health nurse might help.  They know what to look for and the assessments are really just a game to the kids.

Babies NEED floor time and lots of it. Without it they never learn to sit, roll, crawl, etc. And without having decent floor time, a baby's spine may not develop properly as their backs aren't very strong, and not letting them lay on the floor doesn't give them enough stretch out horizontal growth time. This can cause ... THAT is the problem! Babies NEED floor time and lots of it.

Without it they never learn to sit, roll, crawl, etc. And without having decent floor time, a baby's spine may not develop properly as their backs aren't very strong, and not letting them lay on the floor doesn't give them enough stretch out horizontal growth time. This can cause serious problem later in life as well.

These parents need to be told that they are the one's that don't know what they are doing! Not giving their child proper floor time they could be crippling their child for life.

Is he having any floor time? If he is picked up all the time, his muscles will not be able to strengthen properly. He should be rolling by now but not necessarily walking. He really needs a milestone check and appropriate excerises to get him moving. ...  I would suggest they take him to the health nurse at their local centre. Is he having any floor time?
