Tummy Time

Why So Many Babies Are Missing Tummy Time and What Parents Can Do About It

Tummy time plays a critical role in early development, yet many babies are placed in positions that work against them. Understanding proper support can change everything.

When Babies Are Not Supported, Development Slows

Tummy time is essential for early development. It helps babies build neck control, core strength, and body awareness. But when babies are placed flat without support, they tire quickly or become fussy. Without proper positioning, they struggle to engage the muscles that support early milestones like lifting, pushing, and stabilizing.

Positioning Changes Everything

When a baby’s chest is gently elevated and their arms are supported, their experience changes. They stay engaged longer, move more freely, and tolerate tummy time better. Proper positioning allows babies to practice the movements their bodies are designed to learn during this stage of development.

Here are the biggest problems when you have improper positioning

Agitated and fussy baby

Shorter tummy time sessions

Asymmetrical development of muscles

Head tilt and bad posture

These differences aren’t cosmetic.
They directly impact long term development of babies.

How the Burplee Supports Developmental Milestones

The Burplee is designed to support babies in a comfortable, aligned position during tummy time. Its gentle incline and ergonomic shape help babies stay supported while building strength. When babies are comfortable, parents are more consistent. And consistent tummy time is what leads to real developmental progress.

How Knock-offs Mislead Parents and Compromise Baby Comfort

Knock-offs may look identical, but beneath the surface they cut corners that affect safety, comfort, and trust. Here’s what every parent should know before buying.

Every parent wants the same thing: a safe, comfortable place for their baby to rest and build early strength.

But over the past year, I’ve watched dozens of unauthorized knock-offs of our Burplee Lounger surface online, copies that look similar in photos, but are made with cheap foam, incorrect angles, and unsafe stitching.

Parents think they’re getting a deal.
They’re actually getting a product that was never safety-tested and never engineered for newborn bodies.

And babies are the ones paying the price.

Real Stories From Real Parents

Because sometimes the best reassurance comes from someone who’s been there too.
