Baby will only sleep on his tummy?

Question

Since I gave birth my son was fine sleeping on his back then at 4 weeks old all he wanted was to sleep on his belly & now that's the only way hell sleep, or lay if I put him on his back when he's awake hell cry idk what to do he sleeps fine but is it okay?

Answer

He is fine! That's what he wants don't fight it! My daughter slept on her stomach and my doctor says it's fine

Answer

I wouldn't do it....your at higher risk of SIDS.... As soon as he can turn over on his own then you can

Answer

My son is 3 months & i been letting him sleep on his stomach since he was born because thats the only way he'll get sleep & ill get sleep but i watched him like a hawk in the beginning 😩 once i knew he can lift his head & had nothing around him its better 😊 do what you feel is best as a mom!

Answer

Have you tried lifting the head of his crib so he isnt flat on his tummy?

Think it is less risky but i dont think tummy sleeping is a problem if thats what makes him happy why fight it

Answer

I let my baby if he wants. He can lift his head and never sleeps face down so I dont care.

Answer

Not safe. But you could buy the bumper things and maybe try his side

Answer

Id say try to get him to sleep on his side. My mother rolled up receiving blankets and put one on each side so I didn't roll over. Maybe that way you can slowly transition him back to sleeping on his back.
