Tummy Time Tips?

My 7 week old really doesn't like tummy time. He'll only stay on his tummy (on his activity mat) for short periods of time (less than 5 minutes) before getting fussy. What can I do to help make the time more enjoyable for him?

5 minutes is a lot at that age. take breaks when you see signs that he's fed up. get on the floor eye level and keep encouraging him to keep going. also use rattles and anything that makes noise. keep it up!

DD hated it too. We only did it for 5 min or less intervals. Try to do tummy time on your or DH's chest. There isnt much you can do if they hate it! Chat Icon
