What looks like baby play… is actually brain + body development in action. 💪✨ Here’s why just a few minutes a day makes a big difference: Why Tummy Time Matters 🌟 1. Builds Muscle Strength: It strengthens your baby’s neck, shoulders, arms, and back — muscles needed for rolling, crawling, sitting, and eventually walking. 2. Prevents Flat Head Syndrome: Spending too much time lying on the back can cause positional plagiocephaly (flat spots on the head). Tummy time helps avoid that. 3. Supports Motor Skill Development: It encourages reaching, pushing up, rolling, and balance — all key milestones in the first year. 4. Boosts Sensory & Visual Development: Looking around from the tummy position helps improve eye tracking, focus, and depth perception. 5. Improves Digestion: Gentle pressure on the tummy can relieve gas, colic, and constipation. It’s nature’s way of massaging the belly! 6. Builds Coordination & Core Stability: Helps in developing your baby’s core muscles, which support posture and balance. 7. Encourages Interaction & Bonding: Tummy time on your chest or during play is a beautiful chance for eye contact, giggles, and closeness. 💡 Our Tummy Time Routine: We started slow — just 1–2 minutes a few times a day on my chest or bed. Now, it’s one of Teertha’s favorite times to explore, stretch, and surprise me with her mini milestones. If you’re wondering when to start — the answer is: as early as Day 1! Even a few minutes a day makes a difference. 🧸Mamas, how’s tummy time going for you? Any tricks or favorite toys that helped your baby enjoy it more?
