If a dinosaur were to had sat on its eggs... well, lets just say they wanted to hatch a baby, not an omelet. Rather than planting there immense bodies on their small eggs, they placed dead brush over them which would decay and warm the eggs. Also by doing this, they have the opportunity to do something else rather than sit on an egg all day.

Why didn't dinosaurs sit on their their eggs to hatch them.?

Dinosaurs, like many reptiles today, buried their eggs in warm soil or in piles of decomposing vegetation. Dinosurs did not sit on a nest like birds. The heat from the soil or decomposition incubated the eggs and the embryos matured. Some scientists think the mother dinosaur stayed close to the nest to protect the eggs or adjust the rotting vegetation to provide a correct temperature. At some point in their development the embryos broke out of the eggs, like chicks do, and started off on their own.
