Pediatrician 's  Response
in order to answer your question few things needed first
was your child able to hold his head at the age of 3 months ?
does your child choke a lot?
does he have a recurrent respiratory infections ?
does he talk , smile , laugh , able to play ?
did he was able to sit and walk and lose these abilities?
if the problem is only motor ; he can't sit or move properly, then maybe the physical exam shows hypotonia ( no tone or decreased tone ) which some times come as an islated disorder , or maybe accompanied by other findings which need to be investigated thoroughly, because many disorders can cause that .
but physiotherapy can be helpful , schedule with an expert physiotherapist and learn how to do it and do it on regular basis 3-6 times a day. start with the back muscles , because if your child couldn't sit , he will not walk , he needs a good back muscles .
I find this answer helpful
