@occupationalemily: 👋🏻👋🏻I’m Emily! I’m a peds OT and a mom of 3 littles under 4. I love helping families navigate milestones in a simple & fun way. FOLLOW for developmental tips on feeding, movement milestones & PLAY from ages 0-5! 🎨If your newborn HATES tummy time, a lot of babies do! The natural c-curve of their body, combined with newborn muscle tone, can make tummy time really uncomfortable. Plus, if you had to choose between snuggles and laying on the playmat…. 💕but we don’t want baby to be unhappy during tummy time. We’re working to create a positive, fun association with tummy time. 🫶Starting tummy time chest to chest with you, either with or without a baby carrier, is a great way to ease baby into tummy time. (it doesn’t replace tummy time entirely, but it’s a good place to start!) #momlife #tummytime #motherhood#tummytime 🏷️my baby hates tummy time, tummy time activities
