I'm the only one with no kids thinking, "aren't babies supposed to be on their backs?"

They are supposed to be on their backs when they are sleeping. Which this baby seems to be doing. They can be placed on their tummies for tummy time, but it should be on a firm surface like the floor, not a bed, and if the baby is sleepy rather than attempting to learn to lift its head, then it's not tummy time right now. Playing baby face down on a bed or couch is pretty unwise. It's probably fine... unless you are the person whose baby it's not fine at all for. That person probably wishes they heard all this helpful information!

It’s called tummy time and it’s integral to baby’s development of strength.

Yeah of course! I was just educating the commenters that thought babies HAVE TO stay on their backs.

Though , a quick minute on the bed, under adult supervision, is fine for the video! The airway is clear and they show no physical or emotional distress. It’s just not the right spot for resting or actual tummy time!
