Baby girl hates tummy time
My baby girl just turned 8 weeks and she hates tummy time. I hold her on my chest tummy down a lot and she loves that and I thought that was good enough but I took her to the doctor and she said her neck control seems weak for her age. The thing is she will pick up her head and neck and stick it out pretty far and will also push up on her arms on my chest so it seems like she has neck muscles that are decently strong. But when I put her down on her belly she’s not having it. I’m just worried that I should have made it a bigger part of our routine because now I am and she hates it I put her down and she only lasts about 30 seconds before she starts crying. That’s part of the reason I got out of the routine because she seems to hate it so much and I thought just holding her belly to belly was good enough until she was a bit older. Any advice would be appreciated. TIA!
