Tummy time

Hello, I like to know how you mummies incorporate tummy time into your LO scheduled currently my LO is 5 weeks old and he has been really sleepy after feed, hence I couldn’t find a chance to have tummy time with him. Even if at times he is alert after feed, I understand that we need to wait a while before we can do tummy time. Hence by then he would want to sleep and is cranky. How do u all incorporate tummy time, how long is each session for a newborn? How long do u all wait for feed?

If he sleep a lot that's fine, newborns tend to sleep a lot but from 2-3 months they will start being awake more. At first I used to do only once or twice a day, a minute at a time at most. Their head control is not good so they won't like it. Slowly increase the frequency & duration once they are more awake & used to it. Good luck!
