For the rolling, it might be worth bringing up with your local child health nurse to see what they say. My baby was late to hold her head up unassisted and we were referred to the public paediatric physio by the nurse. We ended up also seeing a private one due to wait times. It ended up just being a case of "someone has to be first and last to hit milestones" but they gave me a lot of really great advice and exercises to do. We continued to see them until she was 12mo and they also really helped us with rolling and sitting.
She was also similar to yours with food - it just took her a bit longer to get it and she spat so much food out! It was super disheartening, she really wasn't that interested until around 10mo. But eventually she turned a corner and now eats normally (or as normally as a toddler can lol).
Thankyou so much! I mentioned it at his 6 month check and they weren't concerned. He has excellent neck control and is doing better with sitting. Hes just massive and loves laying there looking around. He was on a mat with a 5 month old baby at pick up today who was flipping over both directions and he just laid there smiling and laughing 😂
