  2. N = 29 parents (N = 15 Group 3 and N = 14 Group 4; MBQ-B Open or the MBQ-B Closed on Day 7 and Day 10). N = 6 babies (N = 3 Group 3, N = 3 Group 4) had not reached the rolling milestone and completed the tummy time item. Deletions due to missing data on either the open or closed versions of the MBQ-B were as follows: Active Play (N = 9, Group 3: N = 5, Group 4: N = 4); Restrained Time (N = 9, Group 3: N = 5, Group 4: N = 4); Screen Time (N = 6, Group 3: N = 2 Group 4: N = 4); Sleep (N = 6, Group 3: N = 2 Group 4: N = 4)
