Tummy time

Hiya
My baby hates tummy time. He is 4 months old and all he does is face plant the play mat. Then dribbles everywhere with it too. I have tried a tummy time cushion but still the same thing. Is this normal!? I feel like such a bad mum for my baby don’t liking it and I’m worried even on his back he won’t roll over either 😩😢 thanks xx

Tummy time is a new concept! The older generation haven't even heard of most of the time lol! So I wouldn't worry, we all do things when we're ready! Baby wearing is meant to be great for neck control, if you're able to wear babes around the house or out? Xxx

You can also just spend time with baby laying on your chest propped up on their arms, or hold them up belly down above you like they are super man, they love that!

Totally normal but I get the stress that comes with it. A lot of babies hate tummy time. I only manage a little bit each day and sometimes she likes it over my legs or when I’m giving her a massage on her back. Every little helps
