Not Rolling Over Yet

My 17 weeks baby still not rolling yet and he doesn’t like tummy time which he only last 5 minutes each time. Though he start to lay from side to side and sometimes he try to roll from his tummy but he started getting frustrated and crying Any advice to encourage rolling over faster and do you think 17 to 18 weeks is slow at this ?

It’s still very early no worries! My girl was an early roller but she loves tummy time and I think it helped. Laying baby on his side and playing with toys to make him look until he turns can help! Some babies don’t roll until 6/7m!

@Julie thank you

Mines also 17 weeks and shows no real signs of rolling over. It’s okay! I’m a mom of 4 and they all rolled over at different times. I wouldn’t worry about it until baby is 6 months and still not showing interest in rolling. You can try placing toys slightly off to the side to encourage movement, also gently helping baby to roll by guiding them in the right direction.
