Babies spend most of their day lying on their backs, making tummy time support a crucial component of healthy physical and cognitive development. It helps babies develop their core muscles and enables them to explore the world around them.
Supporting your baby’s tummy time doesn’t have to be difficult. Start out by placing your baby on his or her tummy for a minute or two several times a day. When your baby grows comfortable, start increasing the time gradually.
To help make tummy time fun for your baby, place toys and mirrors in front of them. You can also get down on the floor and talk or sing to your baby during tummy time.
It’s essential to remember to always supervise your baby during tummy time support. Furthermore, never force your baby to stay in this position if they seem unhappy – instead, try again later.
Tummy time support is not only good for your baby’s physical development but can also positively impact their cognitive and emotional health. With a little patience and creativity, tummy time can be both beneficial and enjoyable for both you and your baby.
