My LO hates tummy time...

He will be ok on his tummy for all of 30 seconds before he starts crying and screaming.  I know he's fine because as soon as I pick him up he stops crying.  How long should I let him CIO on his tummy to get in tummy time?  I know he needs it for development.

    How are you doing tummy time?  Maybe try it another way?  I like to put him on the boppy with his arms propped up or put him on my tummy so that he can lift his head and look at me.

  • My LO hates it too. I've tried all the different tricks and she still screams.
    She could careless about rolling over or being on her stomach.
    I have no advice -- just keep trying I guess.

  • my DD screams at tummy time too ... the only way that works so far is on my stomach ... otherwise 5 seconds and she's screaming
  • DS hates tummy time unless there is a boppy. 

    But he does love to sleep on his tummy, yep his odd lol
