Rolling over and tummy time....

When did your LO start rolling over? DS starts to roll over, and then gets discouraged, and then gives up.

He HATES when he practice with tummy time. Any recommendations on making tummy time more enjoyable? I thought we would be over this by now......

    DS has been rolling over all the time for about week. He does it the best on the bed so maybe you can try him on there.

    DS started rolling on Sunday... we had been doing tummy time for a while on his change table after diaper changes (he liked it best naked)... so after a diaper change, and before setting him up with a new onesie I put him down on the floor... boom! Over in no time... and then did it again a couple of times.

    There are times now he can't get over, and I think it is a traction issue. So... try it with less clothes on.

    As for encouraging it, although we cheered and cheered him on, he really just seemed to want to do it, and that was the motivation.

    When we first were trying to have him do it, I would put him on his tummy and then roll him over so he would get the idea. We always stay behind him so he can't really see us, and I think that helps bc he wants to be able to see us again so he rolls over. I don't think it's anyone thing that you can do, just do tummy time everyday and he's bound to do it sooner then later. HTH
