On my chest and then the football/lap(great way to burp as well lol) hold let’s me get a couple things done while still holding a baby. Also my babies are 2.5 months old I just started doing tummy time with their heads a few inches in front of each other so they can start to look at each other since they’re a little stronger to put their heads up for longer

On the chest is the most natural position for my baby. He loves it but absolutely hates traditional tummy time.

So glad I found this video. I thought I was the worst parent because my son didn't do traditional tummy time until he was 5 months due to reflux. But we would carry him around all day in the football hold and also did chest to chest sometimes. So glad we at least did something for his development!

One more reason to do tummy time: if baby has stomach aches, it can ease them. Ours had tummy ache ALL THE TIME before regular tummy time. When she understood that it helps to be on her tummy, she began really liking it!

Hi,iam from India,we don't have concept of tummy time.but we do the similar activity while oiling and bathing a baby.we sit in the floor with our legs extended ,we put child on its tumny on the leg of massager n bath giver.the child will hold the leg.we will give quick oil massage n a quick bath .that is the only tummy time we know here.naturally after 3months babies start roll over n they will be on their tummy .this is something new for me.thank you for detailed video.

Our first boy started with chest to chest tummy time... he basically lived in that position. I kept feeling guilty that we didn't really do dedicated tummy time though because he didn't really do the traditional tummy time until he was 3 months. Really glad to have found this video now though. I will be using a lot of the tips and tricks mentioned for baby #2

@Sara Rodriquez - Try doing it with one baby at a time, like do tummy time with the baby that’s awake while the other baby is still sleeping. Adjust your time with every activity, including feeding time, to where they don’t need something at the same time. If one hates it make tummy time quicker but more often throughout the day.🥰

I felt awful because he’s almost three months and I’m just now being adamant about tummy time He did his first solid fifteen minutes about an hour ago and I am so proud of him! I’m planning to do it fifteen minutes every wake window, (up to bed time) in all four positions My doctor tried to say do 30 minutes straight, three times a day, and I’d rather do 15 minute blocks, six times a day to get to the same quota Can you let me know of any critiques you may have?

I aim for just the best attentive care for my kids optimal growth in general and it starts home. So thanks again for another great video full of incite on this particularly. My 5 month old did a lot of tummy time from an infant to now in those various positions and still refuses to use her hands....so I just keep trying put her in proper formation and assist. It definitely takes time but we will get there. As you mentioned, "Consistency & Patience are key!" Much love, blessings, respect and peace

My baby literally couldn't wait for tummy time. She would kill head on her own at 2 weeks and sometimes she likes to smack her head on my collar bone and cry. I felt so bad because my hand was on her butt and back so I couldn't stop it. But she repeatedly does lift her head for long moments so I started tummy time as soon as she lost her umbilical cord. I do it for 15 minutes, I let her do it as I pump. Sometimes she gets fussy, sometimes she lasts through the thing, and sometimes she falls asleep 😴 so cute. Either way I flip her over when she's done. Sometimes she flips over on her own if she's done with it. This is why its supervised 😄

Amazing. Short and too the point. Thanks

♥️ your videos. Am from India. Can you please make a detailed video how to put a baby in these tummy positions. I am a first time dad and find it difficult & afraid in holding a baby and then putting them in a position.

Our 6 month old really struggled with TT for a few months. Reflux, CMPA and oral ties that created bad back and neck tightness. We finally got her to where she will do it and she likes it. She started rolling at 4 months but they’ve tossed around that she needs OT. Our pediatrician disagrees. She was held upright around the clock for 3 Months and has incredible head control. But she can’t crawl yet and just started attempting to use her arms to help her sit after a chiro visit. Any tips on helping her to roll to the other side and to crawl? I’m afraid she’s behind from not being able to do tummy time the first few months 😭

Tummy time gives me a break I sit on the bed watching tv and he try’s to look up at the tv to we both love it he’s 3 months old and looks so cute on his tummy 🙌🏻

Hi Jordan no need to apologise. Yesterday’s appointment with the doctor would have been very overwhelming. Your thought about seeing a physiotherapist who specialises in paediatric is a good idea as they can give you specific advice after seeing your son- like positioning advice and tweaking tummy time positions and specific stretches if required. Without seeing your little one it is hard to give more specific advice. Very generally I find most babies tolerate the football hold tummy time position and the chest to chest tummy time position at your son’s age. I am releasing another video this Friday and where I demonstrate how to do the tummy time positions holding an baby rather than a doll which you might find helpful. Over the next week I would try if possible to reduce the google search- there is a lot of misinformation out there, wait for the CT scan and book in to a physiotherapist if you are able to?

I started tummy time on the birthing ball because it was difficult to have baby on chest lap or floor while recovering from c section. My 3 weeks old that hates tummy time on. She started to roll from tummy to back at 2 weeks while on the floor and now she just rolls her way out of tummy time every time we are on the floor. Any tips for that? Just keep flipping her back over? She was also holding her head up on day one.

Can we do tummy time on the bed with a play mat or use a regular pillow?

I havnt done it at all I was never told to. She will be 2 months on the 22nd. I will start doing this. I out her in my chest often and she lifts her head. My sister tried once to but her in her stomach once and she went to sleep immediately .

Thanks for the message. If is fine to do tummy time on a mattress - just make sure you watch your little one when they are doing tummy time on a mattress. I have found babies find tummy time on a mattress harder, as the mattress is soft and they baby sinks into the mattress. Also as soon as they start to lie their head on the mattress turn them onto their back. There is a risk they might not be able to clear their head to the side when they face plant with fatigue.

We started with our twins when we brought them home, they're 4 months now- it doesn't matter how long it's been since they ate. If we put them in tummy time they throw up and then plop their face in it 🥲. They also scream and cry the entire time.. I swear they're never going to roll over.

@barbara623

3 жыл бұрын

Yeah I couldn't imagine the spit up and face plopping in it would be desirable in any way. One thing that I did come across on KZread was a man who did physical therapy with babies. One of his tricks to get the baby to roll over was while the baby was lying on its back, he would take the baby's upper thigh in his hand being sure that the leg was bent, and push lightly on the top of the babies thigh and top of the knee towards the other leg to encourage the baby to learn to use the Leverage of its legs to be able to roll over. I hope this is helpful to you, as it was for me. Best of luck to you and your twins. Oh and by the way, in case you have not heard this today, you are doing an amazing job with both of your babies! You are a wonderful mother oh, and the fact that you have two babies instead of one in my eyes makes you super mom!
