I hate doing it with her because she gets so frustrated. I put her on the floor, and she stays face down. She'll occasionally make a half-assed attempt to lift her head, but then decide that it's too much effort and face plants into the blanket. It makes me nervous, so I always end up flipping her back sooner than I should.
Even when I put her on the Boppy, she wiggles down to bury her face in it. At this point, I have to believe she's mocking me.
Re: My kid sucks at tummy time
Same here. He hates tummy time. Mind you, he will hold his head up when held but when I put him on his tummy he won't. It is frustrating as hell

Sometimes Brylee gets that way. I think she does it when she really does not want tummy time.
And I have to say, I just watched I love you, Man...your siggy pic almost made me shoot diet coke out my nose since I know that scene now, lol.
I could have written this post - word for word
My kid hates it as well!
She refuses to pick her head up unless she's being held upright or unless she's on my chest and even then it's a struggle to get her to do it.
I don't know what to do to encourage her to strengthen her neck....any suggestions??

I'm terrible, my LO HATES it also, and I dont really force it. I try on her playmant, but after one minute she starts to fuss, then I will try using her boppy then she still just fusses. She loves sitting in her bumpo and on our laps. So I figure she get a lot of neck strengthening through that. She can lift her head and look around when on belly. I wont stress too much about it yet
