I'm watching your channel from Japan. In our country, we don't have good enough guidance about tummy time. I wish I'd know it much earlier... anyway through your videos I learnt how important tummy time, how to do it, and how to have fun. And English you speak is beautiful it's helpful for me who learn english too :)
Thank you so much for the excellent information videos!
Many thanks for your helpful videos. My son is 4 months but absolutely hates tummy time. He finds it very frustrating and tiring and will cry so hard to be placed back on his back. Any tips please?
We started with our son in a much more reclined position ie on your belly in the recliner or on the ball with him back far enough to keep his body at a 45 degree angle. This way they aren’t struggling as much at first because gravity isn’t pushing as hard on them at this angle. The rolled up towel technique she uses helps too, or maybe try a wedge? Also starting with just one minute and slowly working your way up to more as he tolerates should help. I think all babies are different though so as long as you are working on it and they are making little bits of progress at a time I still think that’s good!
This was so helpful showing the many ways to do tummy time bc I dont think my son is doing this good bc i dont do tummy time bc on the floor he doesn't like it he starts breathing fast and he looks like he gets worn out fast and i feel bad so I pick him up but the Football hold is perfect I'm going to try that.Thank you. At least until he can hold his head up better. 👍🏽
Cute 😍
Awesome . Thank you
oh my, I started it already to my 1 month old baby boy..
Such a cute baby. Thank you for your videos. Very well informative
Beautiful video i myself share video as i have my newborn too.
my baby always put his arms on his sides...he never uses it to help suppprt his weight during tummy time...
My baby is 5weeks old..
He's excited for tummy time after breastfeeding and when crying... But I afraid his bones isnt enough strong to hold his body
Thanx for tips! Very useful.
I would let italian people known the "tummy time" benefit!
My son is 10 weeks old and he hates tummy time. I have tried all possible positions for tummy time, even bought a boppy pillow and he still hates it. He cries a minute after I put him on his tummy. Every time I put his arm upfront he moves them on his sides and that doesn't help. I start worrying because he is 10 weeks old and can do it at all. Any advice ia appreciated.
How is your son now? My 10 week old daughter absolutely hates tummy time
Question- are the milestones supposed to be met by the beginning or end of the month?
How much time should give tummy time
This was great and thank you for making such an informative video
Wonderful training l am enjoying to see my grandson make every move 👍
How do you work around the ambilical cord during tummy time? Especially before it breaks off.
It sounds like you have a very young newborn. I did tummy time on my chest (find videos for instructions) in very short increments. 😊
I love the lights under the blanket idea! Sorry this is slightly off topic but my five month old rolls all the time to his tummy but once he’s on tummy time can’t figure out how to roll back and gets so frustrated trying. Is there a good way to help him figure it out? Thanks for your videos you are so relaxing to listen to and I also love your baby led weaning videos because we are near that age and I’m trying to learn everything!
Michelle Martel SAME! My 5 month old does the exact same thing. I’m dying to know how to help her do the reverse as well!
Mrs. Nomad yes!! I know they will figure it out eventually but I want to help him as much as I can to speed it up!
Michelle Martel I wouldn’t mind waiting it out but she flips over in her sleep and wakes up crying a few times a night. Also, I read that rolling from back to tummy uses more strength or muscles than tummy to back. So maybe they’re able to go from tummy to back but they just haven’t discovered that they have the skill.
Thank you so much for your kind words!! It sounds like he is on the right track and will likely get to rolling to his back soon, but if you want to "segment" the rolling to help him with "steps". For example, when he is on his tummy, help him roll to his side and then allow him to do the rest of the work to get to his back. Placing him on his side may allow him to teeter and figure out what muscles he needs to use to go backward instead of forward. If he continues to roll forward instead of back when on his side, start to slightly tip his hips back so he can feel the movement. As I am sure you know, making it playful and fun is most important and how most of the learning happens :) Hope that helps!
Kids OT Help This definitely helps! I’ll try this! Thank you for your advice and love your videos!
New subscriber here pilipina watching from dubai and thank you so much it is very helpful and Informative for my work as nanny thanks
My baby hates it, she's 3months old and I can't get her to lift her head longer than 5 seconds :( she just lays there and cries
I would go to doctor 🤨
Mine has low tolerance, too. The doctor said to keep him engaged with toys and by talking, but it doesn’t work for very long. 😕
My baby is 2 months old and she's the same. :(
I've got the same problem😒he's 9 weeks old and he can'tlift his head up when hes lying on his tummy😔
Same with mine. But I put a pillow underneath him and he did way better. Still cried but he lasted for about 30 minutes
I’m a nanny and I’m caring for a newly 3 month old and he hates tummy time
My son does too I want to just not practice it bc he hates it lol
@@newnii Same here
Omg your son is cute... 😆
+Nephilim Archiel thank you!!
Dear Medam Where will tommy time starts from?
My LO is 4 months old and can't even lift her head up. I'm so stressed with tummy time as she is no where near the others in her age group.
Is it normal to have periodic setbacks when babies have growth spurts? My son was doing great with it two weeks ago and now he seems weaker but he also grew a lot recently (he is 10 weeks and 18 lb!)
Ask your pediatrician, but like gym gains, it's not linear.
Can we also get a video on your skincare routine.
Thanks a lot !!!
Susan here with Think Media. Great video! So much good information.
Thank you so much, Susan!! :)
Ummm...tummy time really progresses after 3 months old. i don't think its a good idea to be over pushing tummy time on new borns as their vertebrae isn't strong yet.
Nonsense
My son hates tummy time..🙄🙄🙄
Cosmic Allis mine does too 😫😫😫
Your baby is so cute❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you!!
My 11 week old still hates tummy time & just cries the entire time with his eyes closed (lazy and doesn’t try to lift his head). Any tips on how to help him with this?
Mine does the same and it's so frustrating because I feel like she will fall behind 😭
See this is why videos like these bring false expectations. 11 weeks is still very very early for tummy time. Babies get stronger at it by over 3 months.
my babies hated tummy time till 3 months.so i didnt force them.they are 5 &3 now.. healthy &strong Now i have a third baby of 2&1/2 month.so i m not forcing her also.Dont expect too much frm ur baby. Each baby has his own pace,likes& dialikes.we should respect it
Hey Mama! Do not stress! Every baby is different and will learn and adapt and do things on their own time! Just keep doing it each day and encouraging your little one! :)
I had a query. I have a baby girl 21 days old and we have got a decent sized feeding pillow. My parents give her tummy time on that and to me it feels like she is not comfortable as all the load is coming on her chest and not on tummy. What do you guys suggest? the feeding pillow is quite bigger than the one shown in your video at 3min:35sec
Can I start this to my 2 month's daughter???
ncie
Love your videos💕
Great info
Thank you!!
hes adorable
The exercise ball is brilliant! Going to give it a try as I think it will be easiest on his reflux to be able to control his incline best and adjust him gently without compromising the exercise. Thank you so much!!
@KidsOTHelp
Sis, it works so well for him. Thank you, thank you, thank you!! 😭🧡
When do they cross the threshold from newborn to the 0-3 month range?
+hydragnb great question! Typically a newborn is 0-2 months. So technically there are two newborn videos in the series. I figured I would do two videos for the age range because so much development is happening in the 0-3 months and I didn’t want one video to be too long 😊
@@nekoleamber Thank you!
Would you please reply to my question I am a mother for the first time I let my baby sleep on her back almost all the time I didn't know I should change her positions and now I feel that her back head is flat from one side . she is four month now , I keep turning her on both sides and I do tummy time , is there any hope her head will get back to the normal shape ? Or may be when she gets hair it may cover that ?!
Hi there!! Has your pediatrician had a chance to look at your daughter's head? Many times plagiocephaly is easily corrected with a helmet. This is something your pediatrician would work with you on to see if it is necessary. When your little one is awake, try to reduce lying on her back as much as possible. Babies heads are still very soft until around a year old and can be shaped with proper orthotics.
@@nekoleamber Thank you so much for your replay .. I told him and he told me the same you said to reduce lying on her back and to change her from one side to the other and that's what I am working on all the time now .
@@rehamsediq2940 hi dear, has your baby head gotten back in shape ? I'm facing the same situation..
I have a question relating OT school. I am currently in undergrad and I am debating whether I should go the SLP or OT route. I plan on working within the pediatrics field. However, the only concern I have with OT (and this may sound petty) is the toileting aspect. I love the holistic approach to OT, but having to toilet kids isn't quite for me. I am from LA, and I know you graduated from CSUDH which would be my first choice. My question is, did toileting play a big part in your grad program? Also, do you deal with that once in the pediatric field? Thank you so much in advance!
Hi there! Haha I hear ya! It isn't my favorite either, but typically you are doing simulation instead of actually toilet-ing. It is unusual that your therapy session will align perfectly with their need to use the restroom. So you will break down the skills needed to do the actual task (e.g. reaching behind you, folding toilet paper, cleaning a doll, etc) and have parents apply the newly learned skills at home. We certainly do help kids with the toilet as needed, but you would be surprised how minimal it is. If you are in a SNF or hospital, that is a completely different story! But it sounds like you want to work with peds. :) As far as the program, the only time you will be encountering that is during your fieldwork rotations. I had to do it a lot when working in the hospital and SNF but very rarely when I was in my pediatric rotation. Hope that helps!

teuku khaled you can start as soon as baby is home
My twins hate tummy time
Thank you so much for the help!
My baby hates the tummy position he screams .. 🤷♀️
But i let him have tummy time the last days ans now he likes hit until he gets tired of it .
Thanks for this advice. My baby is 5 weeks old and i just found this video so we haven't been doing tummy time consistently and she has almost no beck muscle development. What should I do to get started? Do I just start doing tummy time at every diaper change? Or should I ease into it?
Runwright Reads
You can start whenever and incorporate tummy time into their routine so doing tummy time when doing your diaper routine would be perfect but I’d do ten minutes each session three times a day. I haven’t started yet and my baby is almost a month. Starting the first of January.
