When did LO start liking tummy time?

We give her tummy time every day, but she screams through most of it.  She gets a lot of semi tummy time when she lays on my chest, but when she is on her mat, she hates it.  We leave her down for a little while until she starts getting really mad and then we pick her up.

Just wondering when others started enjoying it.

    What I do is lay on the floor with them and take turns with them laying on the floor or laying flat on my chest, laying on their back, and than laying flat on the mat.  Mixing it up helps them enjoy it better.

    Mine will only tolerate for a 5 minute max and she is 11 weeks old.

    Great idea!! Mine gets really frustrated during tummy time, and then lets me know about it for 20 minutes after Smile  I'll have to try this instead.
