My 2-month-old screams the entire time he's on his tummy. I know it's important for development, but it's so hard to make him do it. How long should I be aiming for each day, and are there any ways to make it more enjoyable for him?
Try doing it on your chest while you're lying down! My baby tolerated that way better than on the floor. Or roll up a towel and put it under their armpits for support.
This phase is so tough. You're not alone.
Even a few minutes at a time adds up! We used a special tummy time mat with lots of textures and a mirror. That helped distract him.
That's a great question, I was wondering the same thing.
