"Tummy Time"...not so much...
My mom likes to read lots of different baby books so that she can stay up to speed about my developmental milestones. Her mom and sisters (and everyone else that she talks to about my "milestones") tells her that she reads too much and should stop. (Sometimes it makes her crazy.) Her excuse is that she just wants to make sure she has all the info so she can decide for herself what's right for me. Mostly, she just ends up getting frustrated because I'm not a "by-the-book" kind of baby. Anywho, since week 3 or 4 she's been reading that I need to have tummy time everyday. She tried it once or twice early on, but gave up. It's been a lingering thought, that she can't get rid of, that she should try again but has been neglecting to do it because - well, I'll be honest - I don't like it...and I've let her know loud and clear. I don't like squishing my face into a blanket. It's uncomfortable and embarassing. She gave it another shot today, and well, see for yourself...

princesses DO NOT like their faces planted into the floor! no wonder she cries!
Oh my gosh, Jude hates tummy time too! I even took a video of it, and he's crying most of the time. Needless to say, it didn't last long. Poor things.
Macie HATED tummy time too! And she turned out just fine! I too was like you! Trying to follow all the things I read....all along my mom telling me to "give it a rest and stop reading all those books!"....just do what you know is best! YOUR the mother now:)
