Tummy Time Ideas???

Question

My Son is Going To Be 14weeks and When it Comes To Tummy Time He Is Just Not Feeling it. He Can Lift His Head and Keep it Firm and Up For Awhile but He Doesnt Have Fun With it it Seems Unless He is on my Breast. 
Any Ideas On How To Have Fun Tummy Time For Him??

Answer

After his bath while he was still in his towel, and nice and warm, I would massage my son’s back with lotion and also rub his legs/shoulders. He seemed to really enjoy it and forget that he was on his tummy. He would lift up to look back and see what I was doing, and coo happily at me. Plus it was a bonding experience.

Answer

I would lay with my baby on the floor and let him cry it out because he had to learn he couldn’t be on me all the time and now he’s 4 months old and rolling everywhere

Answer

From what our doc said, it seems like having baby on your chest can be decent tummy time itself, assuming you're flat on your back... maybe that'll help? Probably good to check with your doc about it though.

Answer

I put my daughter on her play mat in the kitchen while I clean, I talk to her and she watches me while I move around. That gives her a good 10 mins or so til she gets annoyed with it.

Answer

My son hated tummy time, he would only tolerate about 5 minutes or less at a time. I started putting him down for his naps on his tummy at 3 months and letting him wake up like that and get used to it. He still wasn't real fond of it until he could roll himself around. But I swear those small bouts of tummy time he did do helped him get used to it.
