Can’t/won’t hold her head up

Hi guys

Just looking for some advice really. I’m a FTM and from about 7 weeks old my daughter was able to hold her head up practically unsupported. We had to limit he tummy time to several sessions a day but 5 mins max per session because she has horrible reflux. Again she always held her head up pretty well. She’ll be 6 months next week and is sitting up a few mins unsupported, has a few wobbles etc but she’s getting good at it (holds her head up). For some reason now during tummy time she keeps dropping her head and I’m talking after like 30 seconds. I can’t figure out if she can’t hold her head up (something wrong) or she simply won’t hold it up because she doesn’t enjoy tummy time. She slouches when she sits so I want to do more tummy time to strength all her muscles... she’s not playing ball. Has anyone else experienced this?

Was it diagnosed as reflux? Is she having spasms?
