Not using arms in tummy time
I’m starting to get quite worried about my LG. She will be 6 months on Thursday and still not propping herself up on arms during tummy time, she’s just doing superman pose with her arms out. She’s also only rolled a few times. Our health visitor is awful so don’t really want to ask her about it. Is anyone else experiencing this or know whether it’s something to be concerned about?

Yes, my LB was the same so what I did I used a nursing pillow to pop it under his arm and would sit with him and always adjust it or in the begging just keep hold it in place. If you don't have a nursing pillow, use a rolled up towel. And then we switched to a tummy time pillow which are much smaller. We kept switching during tummy time, sometimes with a pillow and sometimes without it. Also it's good to find what interests your little one, mine loves anything that's moves and makes sound so we bought the crawling crab so he wouldn't get too frustrated that his arms are always adjusted or was held in place.
