Tummy Time is a term used to describe the practice of placing an infant on their stomach while they are awake and supervised. This positioning helps to promote proper development of the baby's motor skills, such as head control, neck strength, arm and leg movements, and overall muscle tone. It also assists in preventing flat spots on the back of the baby’s head (also known as plagiocephaly) that can occur when infants spend too much time lying down on their backs. Tummy Time is typically recommended for babies to engage in several times a day, usually after feedings and during awake periods.
