Tummy time is a period in which experts recommend that babies sleep on their back to reduce the risk of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS). Most babies spend a lot of time lying on their back, so tummy time gives your baby the chance to try a new position and helps prevent them getting a flat spot on their head. Tummy time builds your baby’s head, neck and upper body strength, and helps to develop the skills they’ll need to crawl, roll over, sit up and stand.
