Our pediatrician and the nurses in the hospital recommended tummy time from birth in order to avoid flat spots on the head as well as develop more muscles in his upper body.
We've been trying to do tummy time 3-5 minutes a day.... or at least until he begins to scream. He does a great job already with lifting his head up and looking around, especially when he hears noises.
Harrison didn't like tummy time for a while. I wonder if any baby likes it from the start:0) I love the little noises they make trying to hold their heads up!
