Depends on how content she is down there. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tummy-time-for-newbornyoung-infants#post-2272114 Mon, 24 Aug 2015 20:56:28 +0000 mrsjyw 2272114@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ds is six wks on Wednesday and we do tummy time once or twice a day on a floor mat for 5-10 min on and off. Otherwise it's on our chests! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tummy-time-for-newbornyoung-infants#post-2272111 Mon, 24 Aug 2015 20:54:43 +0000 PawPrints 2272111@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Until about 2 months, the vast majority of DD's tummy time was on our chests. Sometimes I counted babywearing as tummy time. Once she was past 2 months she got a lot better at tummy time on the floor. Before that I kind of felt like it was torturing her for no reason since she really could not get her head up. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tummy-time-for-newbornyoung-infants#post-2272108 Mon, 24 Aug 2015 20:52:18 +0000 GoGoSnoGirl 2272108@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not consistent at all &amp; really mean to increase the time our 12wo is doing. We probably do 1x day for 3-5 min at this point, but when she's in burping position she has pretty good control Just need to increase the angle by doing more tummy down &amp; not just vertical/slight incline. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tummy-time-for-newbornyoung-infants#post-2272105 Mon, 24 Aug 2015 20:48:06 +0000 Jess1483 2272105@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My doc just said 3 times a day for 15 minutes. Yikes! We probably get 5-30 minutes a day, depending on what's going on. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tummy-time-for-newbornyoung-infants#post-2272018 Mon, 24 Aug 2015 18:52:08 +0000 MamaCate 2272018@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We started at least once a day after the cord fell off but LO was so sleepy at the beginning it was hard to do more. I try to do 2-3 times at six weeks now but some days are easier than others. LO does better propped a little on the boppy or on our chests still. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/tummy-time-for-newbornyoung-infants#post-2272003 Mon, 24 Aug 2015 18:31:39 +0000 autumnlove 2272003@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>How much tummy time does your baby get?</p> <p>LO 3 is almost 3 weeks old and we try to put her down for tummy time 2-3 times a day for a few minutes but sometimes I forget! </p>
