Tummy time troubles ?

Question

Hi all! I’m still finding it difficult with my 4 month old to do tummy time. He hates it and I can’t stand having him scream. He last not even 5 minutes until he starts. I’ve tried so much, mirrors, a tummy time water matt. Laying on the ground with him. 
I feel like a bad mom not doing it all the time and want to know if I can do other stuff besides him laying on his tummy. Let me know if your in the same boat as me!

Answer

Every time you change him do a bit of tummy time! Keep at it! You got this

Answer

I sing to my baby girl and use her feet and play patty cake. Try and make them laugh by giving raspberries on their tummy. Any toy he loves use that during tummy time.

Answer

My lo still hates it too, she screams through it no matter what I do. I just keep trying every day. I did use her nursing pillow and she seemed to like that more then been flat

Answer

Let him lay on his tummy on ur chest or ur tummy and sing for him or do facial expressions, works with me

Answer

You're not a bad mom at all! 
My son was going through this. Still sort of is, but his pediatrician told me to just do it ALL THE TIME. As many times a day as I can. When he cries, turn him over. This actually helped a lot. Its been about a month since I talked to his doctor and its so much better now. 
Also, try putting your LO on your chest for tummy time. Dont know if itll work for you, but that's where my little guy did the best until now. 
Just keep doing what you're doing, your LO will get there! 💚
