Tummy Time!!

We visited a DS support group on Sunday. They were gathered to practice some light massages on the babies. Unfortunately, we arrived late and class was over, but the good thing was many were still there to gather and share.

There were at least 10 babies there, majority from 5 months to few years old. Gabe was the youngest fella there.....and the smallest size!!! Those babies, though older, they are chubby lil things with thunder thighs..seriously put Gabe's to shame. Anyway we introduced ourselves and chatted to some couples. Next to us, this couple's son 5 months old, was drinking his milk, and when we say the amount our eyes bulged..think was about 200ml...no joke!! we exchanged numbers and hopefully will be able to meet them again soon. This group meets once a month so we're hoping to catch the next class. Sorry no pics as this was our first time so it would seem rude to arrive late and then take pics...next time

So in preparation, i decided Gabe needs to start Tummy Time. On the web some say to start only when baby has stronger neck muscles, others say to start even few weeks from birth..kinda confusing, but i decided to start Gabe anyway. Lil guy is OK with it, doesn't fuss too much. But he prefers tummy time on my chest, coz after that i pat him to sleep there n then. Today while we were at it, barely 5 mins in, i saw him suddenly still n quiet. I sneaked a look at his face, and there he was, fast asleep...so much for tummy time;)We had 2 sessions, once was in the early afternoon, the other was in the evening

First Session:




Shagged...really Hard Work Man..



During Session 2, barely 5 mins in..


I'm hoping Gabe's neck muscles improves soon so he can use the baby carrier soon and stay on track for his sitting & crawling milestones..
