What tummy time does for your baby is important. It develops the core muscles, avoids baby having a flat head from always laying on their back, allows them to increase their sensory absorption and lets them try out a new position. But all these things can be done in other ways, until baby is happier with tummy time.

Megan Comens, PT, DPT on Instagram: "Want a fun activity to try with your 4-6 month old???? 

Try this!

Fun tummy time alternative and adding the Boppy pillow makes it less difficult than just putting baby on the ground.

It challenges muscles.  It provides dynamic movement which challenges the muscles more than a static position. 

Vestibular input helps calm baby and helps fill their sensory cup!

Brooke Boruff | OT & Mom on Instagram: "Comment “TUMMY TIME” and I’ll send you my free tummy time guide!   Tummy time is a bit difficult at first with our babies because it’s a really hard position…  💪 I mean, imagine yourself lifting a ton of weight when you have basically no developed muscle… hard right!?  But, offering opportunities for tummy time early on is the best way to encourage your baby to enjoy in the future!   Remember to: ⬇️  👉 encourage tummy time on an elevated surface  👉 place baby’s elbows underneath their chest and support their body at the sides  👉encourage turning the head during tummy time by placing toys on both sides  👉 remember short intervals are WONDERFUL and NORMAL  💭 Just hang in there and don’t forget to comment “TUMMY TIME” and I’ll send you my free tum Tummy Time 2 Weeks Old, Tummy Time Positioning, Tummy Time Alternatives, Montessori Tummy Time, Tummy Time Duration, Tummy Time By Age, How To Do Tummy Time With A Newborn, Tummy Time Chart, Newborn Tummy Time Positions
