Encouraging Tummy Time

Buzzy by Buzzy Standing(April 2007) (rank 500+)
My little girl has a flat head on the back like many babies from lying on there back too much. Lots of tummy time is whats needed but like my little girl some babies dont take to it straight away. I have found she has a ball on her tummy when
she has nappy free time, its easier to manouvere about and wriggle and she loves it!!! And its also good to prevent nappy rash!!

Re: Encouraging Tummy Time

My twins developed flat heads too (the side though, not the back) and so I have them on their tummies a lot. Thankfully for me, they love tummy time.

Besides tummy time, it's importnant to keep the babies off of their flat side (be it on the side or the back of the head).
