Hi Keep up with Tummy Time. This exercise helps to strengthen neck and core. It also gives baby time to try rolling, because they are in the right position. Tummy time is also a great position for baby to start practicing weight shifting which is needed to roll. If baby gets the hang of rolling in Tummy Time but then won’t stop rolling over, here are some tips. Encourage baby to reach for toys while they are on their tummy. This will help them learn to shift their weight since they have to shift to one side in order to reach. Use a toy or a sound to get baby to turn their head. Where the head goes, the body will usually follow. Use toy or music and have baby turn their head. If using a toy, start with the toy in baby’s field of vision and then move it out. Move the toy in the direction you want them to roll. Try initiating the roll. While baby is on their back, start by tipping baby towards one side, and then see if baby can finish the roll. Increase the amount of motion they are doing as they get better. You can try pulling baby over using their legs.
