A Prescription for a Level Head

Jaxon's chiropractor, who we are seeing about his slightly lopsided head, prescribed more tummy time for him to help relieve the pressure on his fontanels because he favors one side and to get him to stretch his neck muscles. This is no easy task as Jax likes to immediately roll over when placed on his tummy. I have been putting him back on his tummy after each time he rolls until he gets so frustrated that we stop. The only thing that seems to keep him on his tummy is if I lay on my tummy in front of him so our faces are at the same level. It seems to distract him for a minute or two. Hopefully this enough to make an effect.
