Marina B.. · First-time mom · Baby at 6 weeks

My confinement lady suggested doing it on my chest because he screamed on the mat. He lasts five minutes now just staring at my face.

Prop Support30% moms chose this path

Using a rolled towel or nursing pillow under their chest.

Suits parents whose babies struggle to lift their heavy heads during early weeks. The slight elevation makes it easier for them to look around.

Siew Lan C.. · Experienced mom · Baby at 2 months

I rolled up a small Ikea towel under her armpits. It really helped her prop up to look at her older brother playing nearby.

Floor Distraction20% moms chose this path

Using high-contrast cards or mirrors on a padded playmat.

Suits babies who need visual stimulation to forget they are exercising their core. You will likely need to lie down face-to-face to keep them entertained.

Bought those Shopee black and white flashcards. I lie flat on the floor with him and sing songs so he forgets he is doing work.

Expert guidance

Tummy time builds neck and core strength to prevent motor delays and flat head syndrome. MyHEALTH and Sunway advise at least 30 minutes of daily supervised tummy time, which can include chest reclining or prop support. What matters most is keeping sessions fully supervised and gradually increasing duration as your baby's strength improves.
