A Muslim bride, like all Muslim women, must wear hijab when in the company of men who are not her close relatives. Some brides, however, choose to abandon hijab at the party, but there is no Islamic base or justification for doing so. Also, what the bride wears can depend on her culture and whether the party has mixed sexes. At Arab wedings, often the women and the men are in divided sections, in which case ladies where whatever dresses they please. There is no particular style of dress for a Muslim bride.
If youâre just introducing tummy-time play, begin with a few minutes at a time, allowing your baby to get used to the new position. Some parents start tummy-time play for about a minute or so at 1 or 2 months of age, when babies can hold their heads up for a short time. Others wait until a child is 3 or 4 months old, when the neck, shoulder and torso muscles are stronger.
For safetyâs sake, you should only do this while your baby is awake and you or another responsible caregiver keeps close watch. Tummy time is a great time to play and interact with Baby, says Leann Kridelbaugh, MD, a pediatrician at Children's Medical Center of Dallas. She says you can begin this practice as soon as your newborn comes home from the hospital. At first, aim for very brief (3- to 5-minute) sessions two or three times a day.
