If your LO hates tummy time...

Another way to strengthen their neck is to lay them flat on their back and slowly pull their arms up and they will pull their neck up off the floor with their arms. Of course don't do it very far if their neck is weak because you could hurt them, but we did this for DD and she is really strong in her neck now.

Re: If your LO hates tummy time...

  • Miles has always hated tummy time.  Earlier this week, I was playing with him on the couch instead of on the floor because we had a leak in our door seal and there was a draft.  Anyway, I laid him on his tummy on the couch, then sat on the floor facing him.  He was much happier, and did tummy time for over 10 minutes (his previous record was about 3 minutes).  We now do tummy time on the couch all the time, and he's starting to love it!
