- www.sunnybrook.ca // Tummy time exercises for your baby - instructions from Sunnybrook's Women & Babies Program staff.
When you take your baby home from the hospital, you will have been given instructions to put your baby to sleep on his or her back. But because of this, we need to give the baby opportunities to develop shoulder and abdominal muscles, and to prevent flattening of the back or side of the baby's head.
Every time you change your baby's diaper, turn your baby gently over onto his or her tummy. Gently put pressure on his or her bum, and bring his or her elbows in front of the shoulders. This will encourage your baby to lift his or her head. Do this for one or two minutes to ensure good strength of your baby's shoulder and abdominal muscles.
Doing this every diaper change is a genius idea! My baby hated tummy time, but doing tummy time every diaper change for a minute from birth will definitely teach them to tolerate it.
Hello Koda..
From which day of birth we can start this exercise? Our baby is currently 8 days old.
Congratulations 🤍 praying for you and your little one. Our due date is March 15th
Our newborn is only a month and by the 3rd week his neck strength is quite frightening to visitors. We would have him on our shoulder for burping and he just throw his whole head back with control. Even now he's only a month and a week old he's already rolling on his side.
My baby was rolling on his side at 5 days old lol
He is the CUTEST BABY IVE SEEN! So precious and perfect.
I was thinking the opposite
Every baby is the cutest baby ever seen, 1st pace trophies for all of them!
My son lifted he’s head after 3 days all the doctors and nurse were doing test to see why he was doing that they just came to an understanding that he is a quick learn and even started crawling at 1 month and walked at 5 months
He skipped the tutorial and went straight in the game lol
Kik LeBraVo HOOZY omg
Mine is walking at 2nd month should i be woories
Result of trump policies
and spoke words at 7 month. Good job hahahahaha
That baby looks so precious!!! It has to be illegal to be that cute.

I love how the baby is just as happy as ever 😍😍😍
Agree!😊
Baby holding head up is great! Strong and smart baby.
Perfect video!!
Short, simple and strait to the point
Make more of these videos it helps new moms like my self !!!
New moms should stop browsing their hand phones, lost in their own world and start focusing on their baby's movements.
What all new moms should do is to learn to be a mother first, breast feed your baby for a certain age rather than browsing what is the best milk on the net !!!
Focus on your baby to see if it's taking its natural moves, instead of watching latest tik toks. Seek expertise only if you notice your baby doesn't behave normal !!
The problems with new moms are, they are ready for marriage and to make babies, but not ready to be a mother !!!
@@tropicalblooms4575 sounds like you're projecting 🙄. The new moms commenting on this video are clearly not the kind you've described, they're here to get information on how to properly care for their baby.
How I wish that I saw this video before. My son is over 3 months old. No one told me about tummy time. I am doing them now.
My girl baby is also calm always, like this baby. I love her so much. So cute
Haha, lucky! Mine loses her cookies and screams like she's being murdered every time I lay her down for a diaper change. Every. Single. Time.
how adorable he is
Ricky Westen eh
Yep

The baby might be 10 years old now. Wow. Time flies🙌🏼
I was just realizing that. Wow

Legend has it, he still enjoys tummy time.
Eye contact is good with the baby even right away. They are very smart and like to see a happy face and someones eyes and it comforts them too
Or a mirror so they can see themselves so you can do the massage effectively.
THe look in the baby's face when the Caretaker put hands on him. Like "damn you again! No oh wait i'm not ready! Not readyyyy!"
Lol for real 😂
😂😂 0:25 my face whenever my brother eats my donut:
That's the look I get from my 2 month old every 'tummy' time.
lol at 0:10 he's like, "🎵chillin on my bed, it's so great, no cares in the world, what could go wrong🎵"
Very nice video. Tummy time is really important for babies to relieve the gas
It definitely helps them burp, belch and fart!
🤣 Yall don't know how feisty and strong my baby is. He fights us.
omg!!wat a cute baby he is😙😙
Rupali Arya he is looking like my son.

Newborn babies are emotionally attached to their moms, so clearly emotional bonding begins before birth.
How can you know the babe is emotionally bonded to you? I worry mine is not even tho I breastfeed him
@@chissstardestroyer oh goodness that worries me because he will not sleep much around my husband. He is sleeping pretty good with me unless he's having a cluster feeding spell
@@chissstardestroyer thank you for advice
@@sassycat6487 Yeah, learned that kind of stuff from my mom when I had a new baby sibling some years ago.
@@chissstardestroyer that's awesome you had her to help. My mom passed away so I just learn from the internet and my sister-in-law.
Great video, thats true, you should put your baby on a tummy as early as possible, but after a belly buttom heals
Thank you for your video! I did this to my twins and it works!! You have a cutest baby anyway!🥰😘
Absolutely
Thank you baby for being a good participant in this video
This video was uploaded 11 years ago. Those babies are about to be proper teenagers now!
To loft the head we are not using abdominal muscles.. we are using the erector spinae muscles on the posterior side of the body. Still core muscles but totally opposite from abdominals
I hate stupid people! not trying to be mean.. but you gave no explanation.. do some research cuz you clearly don’t have an explanation yet lol
I don't know why people comment awwww cute..such a cute baby...etc..I'm yet to see a baby that's not cute. All babies are cute. Period.
Fact
Facts
Ummmmm no....not all babies are cute....I'm not being mean but I've seen babies that made you wonder if the parents were aliens cause the baby wasnt cute....PERIOD, LOL
@@celia-bts-armyrivera7170 for me newborn usually look like alien hihi it takes quite some time for babies to get cuter 😉
@@wahana3115803 you are right.
I had a 15 month old in therapy with severe reflux. I had to be inventive to get her to do tummy time. I place her on her tummy and of course she raised her head and wanted up. So a placed a doll just out of her reach and made it into a game. She reached for the doll and at the same time flexed the muscles in her tummy. She laughed while trying to reach the doll. Of course I let her play with it for a bit as a reward for reaching. I offered other toys and cookies. You have to be more inventive with older children bc they are more mobile.
Thank you very much for making this content! We usually suggest starting tummy time around when the baby is 2 months old because her eyesight and hearing is developed enough to track parents and make it less of a fuss ;)
Who are we? Pediatricians recommend beginning when you get home from the hospital
3 weeks and she smiles when I talk to her... don't wait till week 6 :D
xx you
same! my daughter is 3 weeks and is looking me in the eyes and gives me a grin of satisfaction after a dirty diaper is removed lol
Same...mine too smiles and responds before one month
The baby is 11 years old now. How time flies.
My! That baby is so calm! Whenever my boy isn't dressed, he cries and he absolutely hates to be on his tummy! I still make him do some exercises but he whines throughout it.
We do daily tummy time with the NICU preemies as part of their therapy and some of them actually don’t mind it at all (which means that they do what they’re supposed to without fussing and/or crying). And then we’ve got the micro-screamers and the micro-screamers absolutely hate tummy time so they just lay there on their bellies and scream their heads off the entire time until tummy time is over. Luckily since the micro-screamers voices are still extremely low and weak due to their prematurity, all the other preemies in the room can still get their sleep/rest without being disturbed, Lol.
Hello..
From which day of birth we can start this exercise? Our baby is currently 8 days old.
From which month Yummy time exercise should be start for new born baby?
He looked about 3 or 4 WEEKS. He didn't have strong neck and shoulder muscles, which I think usually develop by the 4-6 week mark, depending on each baby.
C est un bb calme ça se voit de suite. 😘
I'm always exercising I can't see I thought you was pushing the baby show this down I said wow awesome that's not what you were doing therapy for the neck okay that's nice the way my mother laid me down to sleep I'm 53 now and I just say thank you
What's the earliest age you can do this?
Thank u love and ur baby such a sweetheart
hello, this video was vety helpful. thank you.
also, I was wondering is it normal for a baby is able to hold her head up 2 hours after birth and look around while being burped or holding a bottle on her own at one month old?
darshna raval my baby was preemie at 35 weeks and held her head up immediately. I think its normal.
darshna raval I'm sure it is. My daughter did the same thing hours after she was born.
My son is only 3 weeks old and he's held his head up and looked around since the day he was born. He was 3 days past his due date.
While the baby is in the mothers womb... do take goat or deer neck bone soup. It does help... the baby to lift up their heads as soon as born
angel of God wtf?!
What a terrific baby you have there.
I'm going to put my own baby on her belly too. :)
How many months old baby?
My newborn held her head up from the first day! Shes proper smiling now at 2 weeks and following us with her eyes and reacting to us loads.
baby is sooo cute!
This baby is so professional while rolling the 📷
He's so cuuute
What a cute and beautiful baby he is.
is this right after taking him home. or does he need to be a month
Hi Rebeca - Tummy time can start right away - no need to wait for baby to turn a month old.
How many times a day we can do that ?
When is the day I"ll be a parent God??🥳🥳🥳
God will answer you
Preciosidad y dulzura de bebé,es un ángel del cielo ❤❤❤

Does anybody know that should we wait till belly cord fallen by itself? Can we put a newborn baby on their face when they have belly cord?
Hundreds even thousands of babies have survived with out of these tummy time there No manufacturing direction every babies different so what work with one may not work with the next it’s a live and learn deal old ideas aren’t bad just old
Living and learning means learning from other's experiences too. There is nothing wrong with exercising a baby, so that her development goes easier for her. It has been proven beneficial. You don't HAVE to, but it's good for the baby.
Hundred of thousands of babies through history have also survived without medicine or clean water, so by your logic we should those things away?
Or perhaps we could look at research and find ways to improve the care of babies?
Omg please.
How different are times now !! My 43 year old son I was taught to sleep him on his tummy !! So he would not choke on spit up or vomit ! Times have certainly changed x
Same here. When my sons were infants, hospitals said put them on their stomachs to sleep. I cringe when I see a baby lying flat on their back with no elevation at all. I don’t care what experts say now, I believe a baby has more of a chance of having respiratory issues flat on their back.
@@donnasmith9756 and I cringe when I see them swaddling baby’s for so long in their sleep !! I just don’t get it ??
That's what my mother in law keeps saying. "Turn her on her tummy or she'll choke!!!" The first thing they told me when she was born was to never ever let her sleep on her tummy. It's crazy how the advice has completely flipped.
@@TigersandBearsOhMy it’s like they’re trying to kill children or something
The science is always changing it seems. My son loves sleeping on his stomach and side. And sleeping on his side is good for his reflux issues. His pediatrician said he can lay on his stomach and side as long as I'm watching him and he is supervised the whole time. Otherwise he lays on his back.
So many ignorant people in this comment section. Just because people didn't do something a certain way in the past, does not mean the new ways of doing things are wrong. As humans, we must constantly learn and improve the way we do things. Sure, you can do things the old way, and it may turn out fine, but it isn't for the best. If your baby doesn't tolerate being on their stomach on a surface, then just hold the baby against your chest so they can practice using their neck muscles that way.
As for the sleeping on their backs, it reduces risk of suffocation and death. Why risk it? Don't ignore this advice, it could cost your child's life. That should be enough motivation to follow it. No matter how big or small the risk, why risk at all, when it comes to your child's life?
At the end of the day, ask your pediatrician for advice if you are curious about the necessity of things like in this video.
It's extremely annoying and counterproductive when any innovation or progress in society is challenged with the sole argument that something was done/not done in a certain way in the past. I would love if someone had documented an anecdote when the wheel was invented and people challenging that invention because they prefer to drag things around the hard way just because that's how their ancestors did. While traditions are important, they have their appropriate moments. For example, follow all the traditions you want when it comes to celebrating a birthday or how you make your family's cake. However, for things like immunization vaccines and food safety, be open minded about it. Otherwise, we would still building using asbestos and led plumbing.
My baby hates tummy time. He always has. If you place him on his belly, he gets pissed and dips himself onto his back almost immediately. He will only do tummy time lying on my chest
Most babies hate tummy time...as a parent it’s your responsibility to find ways to be sure it’s done several times a day at least the first six months.

When to start tummy time
My baby is the same
@@anusham9611 after birth
At what age should we start doing this ?
ok, but why? what's the reason for this? Will he not be able to build strength later without doing this? Do we have bad time, so that we have to do this quickly? We do this, only to pass time? What's the reason for doing this?
What a gorgeous little hunka burning 😘😘. Him so handsome little guy 😍
He’s adorable 😁❤️❤️
Adorable interacción.....very good
They can suffocate beneath blankets. So it's safer to clothe them warmly and skip the blanket
Ankush wary
Look at that chunky baby 🥰🥰😘😘😘 that cute tummy! 😍😍
I love all babies and happen to think that they are all absolutely adorable. No political correctness here!
Such an odd comment. 8 years later who would of thought the world would be in a worse place.
Does this work on adults as well?
In which month we have to start tummy time for babies
Hey ..... should we start with tummy time immediately after bringing the baby home from hospital?
+Loyiso Madotyeni Hi Loyiso, You can start tummy-time in the hospital, as long as you ensure it's supervised.
I started the day my little girl was born had her laying on my tummy/chest when I sitting up in bed.
Prone on elbow (tummy time) helps to develop neck and head control as well back extensors.
From when can we do this practice with the baby?
I just cannot wait to have kids of my own 🥺🥺♥️♥️♥️
Pregnancy is not fun at all, be ready.
He's is so cute!
But I think babies know what to do at certain points in their growing time to strengthen their muscles for the activities like turning, sitting, walking etc. why should we do this? Babies know what they should do.
My baby is already and month old and can roll on her tummy on her own and left her head with out any support..
Jamila Ahkafuddin that’s brilliant
So, cute😍 You can use Ayurvedic Massage Oil while exercising the baby from companies like babyorgano. Which can be very helpful to build a baby's body.
Maa sha Allah..
My baby started to lift his head when he was abt 20 days. Is it normal?
Hey Myrtle! Yes it is normal..😊
Absolutely. My girl started lifting her head the same day she was born.
I gave birth to my son 2 months earlier,and he was 5 days old when I was holding him,started lifting off his head from my chest,3 days after that started lifting more,turning around,I thought there was something wrong with him,then got scared that he will hurt himself. 😂
Such a cute baby
Any one know age of baby in the video? He seems at least 3 months old.
