Why Your Baby Needs Tummy Time and How to Do It Without Losing Your Mind with Dr. Mirav Newman DPT
About this episode
Tummy time-- let's talk about it! We hear about tummy time and how our babies need it everyday. But no one ever tells us why it's important and most babies HATE being put on their stomachs.
We invited Dr. Mirav Newman, a pediatric physical therapist, to do a deep dive into all things tummy time. Why is it important? How can we make it less miserable for our babies? How long should we do it each day?
In our conversation Mirav shares with us the dangers of keeping our babies in "containers" all day. How going from carseat to bouncer to stroller to swing is actually detrimental to our baby's development.
