It's tummy time

Putting your baby to sleep on their back is best, but experts say babies still need tummy time during play. Sometime between 1-2 months of age, start placing your baby on her tummy everyday to play for one to two minutes. Encourage her to lift her head by getting down on the floor and holding a colorful toy a few inches in front of her face, then raise it slowly. Doing this helps her build upper body strength and head control, which will someday help her roll over and then crawl.
