Question

If your baby rolls to belly in the middle of the night do you try to flip him/her? Advice

Answer

Mines still not rolling! Ahh

Answer

My son (5months) is a stomach sleeper. At first when he started rolling over at 2 1/2-3months I ALWAYS tried to put him on his back but he would wake up and we would go back through the vicious cycle and sometimes I would have to let him sleep on me ( I know breaking all the rules but a moms got to sleep) 😑. I talked to my pediatrician and she said as long as he was able to roll him self over fine unassisted and can lift his head I could just leave him be . So he has been sleeping on his stomach since he was about 3 months old , he continues to move throughout the night a switch to his side etc but  I always make sure he has no hazards in his sleeping area 🤷🏻‍♀️

Answer

I flip her because she wakes up and cries. She likes sleeping on her side but if she rolls onto her belly she gets upset and still hasn't figured out how to roll back

Answer

I used to but I would always wake him up! He will usually roll back and forth all night and stay asleep so I leave him be💙

Answer

I flip her if she rolls into the side of her crib or seems stuck

Answer

If she can roll both ways it's not necessary.

Answer

Following.  Sometimes I do if I hear her roll only because I’m paranoid about it and she can’t seem to get from belly to back yet.

Answer

My niece sleeps on her tummy, her mom places her on her back but she immediately rolls over and falls asleep. At first my sister kept turning her over but now she just lets her be and she sleeps so much better! If they can hold their head up well it shouldn’t be an issue.

Answer

My LO prefers her tummy and she can roll from back to belly and belly to back. If she’s on her tummy she turns her head to the side so she can definitely still breath. The first few nights she started this I was up all night watching to make sure she was breathing, so I did not sleep at all! So now I try not to worry as much 😅
