A. Hello good morning !! Tummy time is suggested after 2.5+ months,once the baby starts to roll over then give tummy time. Place a blanket on the floor ,keep the baby on tummy side for 5-10 minutes this helps in roll over,holding neck,head,crawling,strengthening abs . Tummy massage should be given from 1 -1.5 month onwards - Gentle massage the tummy with oil for 5 minutes to relieve gas ,constipation,colic pain.
