Why does my son detest to be on his
stomach? Anyone else have this problem?

Alyvia hated it too. I don't think a lot
of babies like tummy time at the
beginning. I would get down on the floor
with her so she didn't feel so alone, but
she wouldn't tolerate more than 5 minutes
a day. So that's what we did.
Totally normal, love!

We don't last very long either, probably 5
minutes tops. I do make sure to put him
on his belly a few times a day though, 5
minutes here or there.
Now finn won't stay on his belly on the
floor, he rolls over immediately, so i'll
put him on his belly on his countoured
changing pad and put a toy in front of him
and the sides keep him from rolling and I
think the change of atmosphere might help.
He tolerates it much better than being on
the floor.
Yeah its normal for young babies to hate
it. I just did a little every day and
just did as much as he could tolerate.

Oni slept on her stomach her first 5
months of her life. So tummy time was
never a problem.
Tummy time is frustrating for lots of
babies. Because they can't see anything.
They have those mats with the mirrors on
them!! Oni's cousin loooooves his!!!!
