When did you start tummy time for you little one?

Question

When did you start and what are some tips?

Answer

Our pediatrician wanted our son to start tummy time as a newborn for a minute a few times a day. Thankfully he really enjoys it!

Answer

We didn’t start floor tummy time right away because my baby had reflux and would spit up a ton every time we put him on the floor on his tummy. 
But you can start tummy time right away basically. And chest time counts as tummy time. My baby’s done a lot more chest tummy time than floor tummy time, but we’re starting to do more on the floor

Answer

After umbilical cord fell off. 
Lots of babies don’t enjoy it for some reason so maybe try to flip baby for a couple minutes after each diaper change. Then it becomes habit and those few minutes all add up throughout the day without baby getting too “angry” with you. Lol

Answer

Started when we got home with 1 minute (or less at a time) and increased as he would tolerate.

Answer

Aside from chest tummy time, like 2 weeks old we started with tummy time on our bed. He is 5 weeks old now and can hold his head up well and has started rolling over on the bed. He can't roll over on the floor yet though.
