Tummy time

Rosebean

Has anyone started yet? Because they left the cord clamp on, I am tempted to wait until her stump falls off before making it a daily routine. I would love to know how early you are starting...

Other than laying baby on the tummy on my chest, I always waited until the stump feel off. But my kids both would get a little weepy if the stump was moved or messed with.

We are doing it mostly on our chests right now.

My plan is to start right away. But we'll see what I do once she's outside.

I do tummy time on my chest mostly, he loves it and is very active that way. If I put him down somewhere else he just falls asleep...

We started as soon as the stump fell off (12 days), and do once or twice a day. He loves it!

Ditto PPs, we do tummy time on my chest and once we her stump falls off we will start using her baby gym.

We do it mostly on chest, but I do it once a day on an activity mat or blanket. We started doing it around 2 weeks since he was in the hospital before that, he still got kangroo care there.

I just keep her on my chest for now. I was thinking about trying the mat this weekend. LO will be 2 weeks tomorrow.

We started right away, the day after she was born. She loved it. Her stump fell off at 4 days old revealing a supah cute belly button. She still loves it at a week. We do once or twice a day for a couple minutes.
