Babies: 0 - 3 Months

Anyone's older infant still hate tummy time?

DS still hates it and will still only stand it for a minute at a time.  We only do it once or twice a day because it gets him so worked up.  When he was younger, he would do it on our chest, but now that he's a big boy, he doesn't like to lie on our chests anymore.  I'm getting kind of worried that he'll have problems rolling over, crawling, etc.

He loves being upright and sitting up...I don't know what it is about tummy time that he hates so much.

Re: Anyone's older infant still hate tummy time?

  • my ds will tolerate it a little more. But does not enjoy it.

    He will last maaaybe 3 minutes. we just do frequent intervals. Some babies just never take to it.

    just keep trying.

  • DS will only last for a few minutes, I think because of the reflux. He also loves to be sitting or standing but absolutely hates tummy time.
  • He still does not like it that much.  It really helps when he does it on the boppy.  He will tolerate it a little bit longer on it.

  • DS is just now starting to enjoy it.  He used to last about 3-5 mins max.

  • My DS always hated tummy time. He lasts about 15 seconds a day before screaming. Well he still figured out how to hold his head up by 2 months and is now working on sitting up on his own, even without much tummy time.

  • Yes! DS hates it still but can hold his head up really well and sits up with help. I always worry he'll never learn to crawl or something!
