Babies: 6 - 9 Months

Tummy time

DD bobs/headbangs her head alot when shes on her tummy sometimes her head even hits the ground she does it so much. I am always concerned about every little odd thing. Normal?

  • My son did this at first for a while. I just made sure to put him on a really padded area to make sure he didn't hurt himself.

  • DD2 is a few weeks younger that your son, but it's totally normal. I try to make sure DD is on a thick blanket or those rubber mats for tummy time to minimize hurting her head. She's also very much into rolling over these days, so I have to constantly watch her and sit right next to her during any floor time activity so she doesn't roll off the mat and onto the hard tile. 
  • Maybe try tummy time with a boppy? I did that with DD, I would lay her on the boppy so that her arms, shoulder and head were elevated... seemed to help, now her arms are strong enough I dont have to do this anymore
