    Thanks for the information. I have a preemie baby who is over 6 months of birth age and 4 months of correctional age. She has a flat head behind and I believe this is has a result of her sleeping position which is usually on her back. She hasn't started rolling over and she hates being on her tummy. Ive watched some of your videos and I believe they will be helpful. Thanks so much for the information. I will let you know as she progresses on her developmental stages.

  • @b93b01046

    Thanks for the video. It’s very informative. My daughter is three and half months and just learned to roll from back to tummy but not tummy to back. She would roll over, happy in tummy time, until she is exhausted and cries.
    She has always liked doing tummy time and lying on her side. I think that’s why she develops back to tummy first. But she doesn’t yet have the strength to hold herself up for very long (maybe 10 mins the most).
    We tried the methods you suggested in the video to encourage her to roll from tummy to back, but she gets upset if we rock her side to side or help her shift weights to roll back to her back. She immediately rolls back to her tummy even though she is already super exhausted and crying. She is also not yet interested in toys or reaching for objects. Any suggestions? Thanks!!

    • @friendlykiddoc8796
      @friendlykiddoc8796  2 года назад +1

      Thank you for watching this video! It sounds like your baby prefers being on her tummy, over laying on her back. At this age they are curious to see what's going on around them. All babies develop at their own individual pace, and mastering rolling over is no different. Keep giving your baby plenty of play time on the floor and practice, and it will be a matter of time before she figures it out.

    Hi, thanks for the information. I will definitely start doing these exercise. My baby is 16 weeks old and has not yet tried to reach for a toy. Without that skill, can she still roll from tummy to back? Also, is it okay she hasn’t tried to reach for an object at 16 weeks? Is there any exercise we can do to encourage that?

    • @friendlykiddoc8796
      @friendlykiddoc8796  3 года назад

      My pleasure Muriel. Yes it’s ok that your baby is not reaching for objects yet, some babies will start doing that a little later. You can do the other activities to help teach the baby to roll that don’t require the baby to reach for objects in the meantime.

    Thank you for the video! My baby is 3 months and started rolling tummy to back a couple weeks ago but she will only roll to the left. I've tried to get her over the other way using toys and practice back to tummy both directions. Any suggestions?

    • @friendlykiddoc8796
      @friendlykiddoc8796  2 года назад +1

      Kathleen thank you for watching the video and leaving feedback! Most babies do find it easier to roll in one direction over the other. Since at 3 months old, babies are not as interested in reaching for toys as their motivation to roll, try doing the technique where you hold onto the baby's shoulders and rock her from side to side. Then take her part of the way to rolling onto the right side and see if she will complete the roll in that direction. Also practice by having your baby lay on her right side for several minutes so that she becomes more comfortable with that side.

    My daughter started rolling over from back to tummy by 4 months. She is coming to 6 months but find it very hard to move from tummy to back. I will use the exercises you suggested. She turns on her tummy in the middle of the night but can not turn back and wakes up.and starts crying. Can you suggest any solutin to it?

    • @friendlykiddoc8796
      @friendlykiddoc8796  3 года назад +1

      Fatima thank you for watching the video. Some babies find it harder to roll from one side onto the other, as it sounds like the case for your baby. The only solution is to teach her how to do it, to solve the night time crying episodes if you think they are happening because she can’t roll onto her back. Do the exercises with her on a daily basis so she learns how it should be done. It will be only a matter of time before she starts doing it on her own.

  • @yanabanana5086

    Wow, I wish my baby was so interacted with the toys. Because so far he doesn't reach out to them much. He did start to intentionally roll over from his back to tummy at the age of 4 months. Only to the left side though 😄

    • @friendlykiddoc8796
      @friendlykiddoc8796  3 года назад

      Hi Yana. Each baby is unique and not all will be interested enough to reach for toys. It sounds like your baby is making progress in rolling over. If your child isn’t motivated to move towards toys just yet, try doing the other exercises that support the baby in rolling over.
