Tummy Time

Experts recommend so many minutes of tummy time per day. How many? Well actually I don't know. I guess you can tell I'm not a big fan of expert recommendations. But we try to incorporate some tummy time into our routine at least a few days a week. In fact unlike most babies Thomas loves tummy time. He's pretty strong at holding his head up and can already roll from his tummy to his back and one time last week he went the other way from back to tummy.



Sophia, on the other hand, disliked tummy time. We would have to force her to stay on her tummy. The poor thing would cry and fight us every time...even on the cool tummy-time surfboard mat. I know. I know. Mean parents.

Now before you call us tummy torturers rest assured that eventually she learned to like it.

That's great that Thomas likes tummy time. That will serve him well. We ended up taking Sky to physical therapy because she wasn't lifting her head up when she was on her tummy at 3 months. She just hated being on her tummy. Cute kiddos!
