When babies roll over from their tummy

Babies typically start to roll over from their tummy to their back between 4 and 6 months of age, although some may start earlier or later. Rolling over is an important milestone that helps babies to develop strength and coordination.

To encourage your baby to roll over, you can try the following:

  1. Place your baby on their stomach while they are awake and alert.
  2. Encourage them to lift their head and chest by placing toys or other objects within their reach.
  3. Gradually increase the amount of time you leave your baby on their stomach, starting with just a few minutes at a time and gradually increasing as they become more comfortable.
  4. Make sure your baby has plenty of tummy time each day, as this can help them to develop the muscles they need to roll over.

Remember to always supervise your baby closely while they are on their stomach and never leave them unattended. If you have any concerns about your baby's development or if you notice any delays, it is a good idea to speak with your healthcare provider for guidance and support.
