Tummy Time Tracker
Count Your Baby's Tummy Time, One Short Session at a Time
Start the timer when your baby is awake on their tummy, or add minutes with one tap. The tracker totals today's tummy time toward the World Health Organization's 30 minutes a day and keeps a 7-day log you can print.

Start Small and Build Up
The American Academy of Pediatrics suggests starting soon after coming home from the hospital, with short sessions of 3 to 5 minutes, 2 to 3 times a day. Short, frequent sessions add up faster than one long one.
The World Health Organization's target for babies who are not yet crawling is at least 30 minutes a day, spread across the day while awake.
Ways to Make Tummy Time Easier
Get Down Face to Face
Lie on the floor at your baby's eye level; your face is the most interesting thing in the room.
Use Your Chest
Tummy-to-chest time on a reclined parent counts, and many young babies accept it first.
Pick Calm Moments
Try after a diaper change or a nap, when your baby is awake and content.
Switch Sides
Place toys on both sides so your baby turns their head both ways.
When to Ask About Tummy Time
Some babies dislike tummy time, prefer turning their head one way, or tire quickly on their tummy. Bring your log and those observations to your pediatrician or to an infant therapy evaluation; the team looks at posture, head turning, and movement together.

Sources and How This Tool Works
The daily target is the World Health Organization's 2019 guideline for infants under 1 year who are not yet mobile: at least 30 minutes in the prone position (tummy time) spread throughout the day while awake. Starting guidance comes from the American Academy of Pediatrics' HealthyChildren.org: begin soon after coming home from the hospital, with short sessions of 3 to 5 minutes, 2 to 3 times a day, while the baby is awake and closely supervised. The tracker adds the minutes you log; it does not measure your baby.
