Since Mio was around two weeks old, we’ve been giving her 5-10 minutes of tummy time every day. From the beginning, she seemed to have pretty strong muscles and she’s been able to lift her head during tummy time, albeit for only a few seconds (and with a fair share of grunting).
This week, she surprised us by rolling over from her tummy to her backside! She’s done it a few times already, but I haven’t been able to capture it on camera until now. Even so, I was only able to capture halfway in, when she had already made it onto her side. Pretty impressive for only 5 weeks!
We can’t wait to see what other things she’ll start being able to do!

Yup! I had heard that you could start tummy time as early as the first week, so we decided to start early and just do a little each day. 🙂
