Tummy Time

 Waverly will be 4 months old on July 11th.  She definitely has a personality and one of her quirks is absolutely hating tummy time.  

For infants, tummy time gives them a chance to strengthen their neck muscles, arm muscles and leg muscles.  This helps to prepare them for crawling and walking later on.  Any time Waverly is put on her stomach, she would very quickly let you know she was unhappy about it.  She was having some issues with reflux and we assumed that was the reason she didn't like the pressure on her stomach.

This time, I tried something a little different.  I put her down on her boppy pillow, to give her some support and keep her from laying fully on her stomach.  She just had a ball.  Then, between her big head and her heavy specialty boots, she started to flip herself over.

See ya soon!
