Only way my little boy will do tummy time for a significant period is using this pillow, is this okay for now? I do keep trying with no pillow too but it last about 10 seconds lol ๐

My little one has to see a physio because of having Erbs palsy and she actually recommended that you use a pillow until they are more tolerant of it anyway. She said don't remove pillow till they can keep their head up for around 10 or 15 minutes

He can hold his head up brilliantly and has even rolled over to his tummy a couple times but just hates doing it. I'm glad I'm not the only one in this boat - so many mums seem to brag about what their bubbas are doing which is lovely for them but can be worrying at times ๐ xx

My girl hates the pillow so we walk around the garden and she holds her head steady that way while she absorbs her surroundings. She loves to just chill and watch the leaves in the trees for ages.
Tummy time isnโt mandatory and there are lots of alternatives to help babes neck and back muscles strengthen.

Oh bless! My first hated tummy time so don't worry about it. It's great to encourage development, but remember it's not the end of the world if they don't like tummy time, I was watching all the developmental milestones when my eldest was a baby but now I can't even remember when she rolled, crawled etc. and you really can't tell the difference between them all - like who rolled at 3 months compared to 5 months xx

Same, at 14 wks, floor-only tummy time is uncomfortable - and we have the exact same pillow as you!

omg how old is he ??
