Tummy time
How often do you do tummy time with your little one? I’m not doing it anywhere near as much as I should because he hates it. Trying to find ways to make it more enjoyable 🥺 he’s almost 12 weeks and although he can mostly hold his head he doesn’t have full control and I feel like it’s my fault as I’ve been slacking with tummy time to strengthen his neck muscles

I’m really slack with it too, try do it at least once a day (max 3 times I’d say) but she only lasts 2/3 minutes before getting really upset. Need to do it more often but it’s so difficult if you have other stuff on that day x
I’ve been doing a bit on the exercise ball that I had during pregnancy. I also sometimes use an inclined pillow (also from pregnancy) my little girl went through a phase of not wanting to do it either. I think just go with baby. I think tummy time on you also counts.
I barely do it on the floor for the same reason …there are some days we don’t do it at all and it’s really starting to bother me but I don’t want him to be stressed out either x
Im glad I’m not the only one.
Im taking him to sensory class this week and dreading the whole “my baby can do this” etc I’m not normally one to compare things but I feel like I’m letting him down but when he’s had enough I’m not going to push it x
Literally just posted about this 😂 I reckon we're doing about 20 mins a day in total 😅
Honestly never, she just flops her head down and gets annoyed but we do tummy time on my chest every day and she often falls asleep that way! Her head control is really good though but we’re starting a tummy time/sensory class next week so hopefully she’ll get a bit more used to it and I’ll be a bit more confident too
I feel bad for not doing it with my 12 week old but she gets upset as soon as I put her on her belly x
