Baby sleeps with face in the mattress

Hk

Does anyone elses baby do this? Hes started sleeping on his tummy and sleeps face down. Not side to side but face down with his hands under his face.

It makes me SO NERVOUS.

I cant sleep.

Everytime I move him he goes back to it within 10 mins.

Mine does this too. I lay him down to bed on his back, the. He immediately rolls to his side. By the time I go to bed, he’s on his tummy face down, butt up. I try to turn him but he pushes back and stays in that position. It terrifies me, but he can roll himself over really well now so I try not to worry as much.

Mines done this since 4 months. She’s totally fine, she just likes her face pressed against something when she sleeps 🤷🏻‍♀️

My first did. My doctor pretty much said you can't watch them 24/7 if they keep instantly going back to it there's really nothing to do. Maybe try to just turn the head a little. On a crib mattress it's hard enough it should be fine though.
