Tummy time !!??

Question

My three month old daughter still literally hates tummy time I can't get her to like it her head is pretty strong but every time I try to do tummy time she just crys anyone else having this issue is there any advice you can give to me to help with this

Answer

I am reading a great article of how to get your baby to like tummy time. I had the same issue, my baby hated tummy time but I used some of the alternatives to work our way up to tummy time and I have seen a great improvement in 2-3 days. Her face used to be flat on the ground at 3 months old and she could only hold it up for a couple of sec. We started using a excersise ball as well as the boppy pillow and she really likes the excersise ball especially when I place it in front of the mirror or daddy stands on the other side interacting with  her. She yells in excitement and laughs compared to her huffing and puffing on the ground.  
Her is the link if anyone is intrested in trying it out.

Answer

My daughter likes being on her belly. Since 1 week we were doing tummy time the flip side to this is she hates being on her back . Sleeping has been an issue bc she likes sleeping on her tummy which I found out while trying to burp her on my lap on day and she fell asleep lol.

Answer

My Lo hates tummy time too. She's 3 months and maybe lasts a minute before crying.

Answer

I stopped making my daughter do tummy time. She either screamed or just laid there. Her neck is strong. She holds her head up fine and will do some tummy time on me. I say as long as she can hold her head up and isn't floppy, you're probably fine.

Answer

Mine isn't a fan either, so we tummy time on my stomach, boppy, and the changing table. I also bought him a baby Einstein prop pillow that he seems to enjoy  because he keeps rolling over once he's propped up on it.

Answer

I'm in the same boat :( my 3.5 month old hates tummy time and he has from the start. He can hold his head up on me and when I hold him sitting up (although hes not sitting on his own yet.) I've also tried all the suggestions and no luck

Answer

I have the same issue... My LO loves to be on his tummy while laying on mine, but as soon as I put him on the floor he begins to cry. I have all of his toys and I am even on the floor looking at him, but it makes no difference. He has great head control and sometimes gets his arms up under him but he is still crying and eventually his face in the blanket and he is sobbing. 
I know this doesn't help, but your not alone!

Answer

My daughter hated tummy time but loves to sit up so that helped her core and head/neck coordination. Now that she's rolling on her own at 6 months, she likes tummy time. I tried everything before that (sitting on the floor, distracting her, playing, new toys) but it didn't work. So I think when your baby is ready, she'll start exploring tummy time.

Answer

My son only liked tummy time if he was naked. And even then he cried because he would get frustrated because he couldn't go anywhere. You just have to push through it. Get down on the floor with her and talk to her so she knows she isn't alone. My husband would also get down on the floor with us and put his arm behind our son's feet so he could push off. It helped a lot.
