[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 481232, member: 1233"] She may hate it, but it is important that she spend time on her tummy. As long as you know she isn't hurt or in need of a diaper, feeding, etc...., try to let her be on her tummy for a few min at a time. Maybe just 1 min at first, then maybe 1.5 min, etc..... It is HARD to hear them crying, but if she is otherwise OK, she might actually learn to LIKE being on her tummy if you can let her cry for a few min. One of my cousin's had a baby that HATED tummy time. Then his big sis spent time with him and he started loving it but only if she was there. The secret? She was giving him a bit of chocolate syrup on her finger if he was on his tummy. No tummy, no yummy is how she explained it. Too her mom a week or so to figure it out, lol. Partly because the sister hid the choc syrup in her bedroom because she got yelled at if she opened the fridge by herself (she was 4). We honestly don't think the baby would ever have done tummy time with-o it, at least not for a long time. [/QUOTE]
