How does your baby sleep?

Question

My 5 week old has terrible gas pains and will only sleep on his belly. If I move him to his back he just rolls himself right back over to his belly. I’m participating in a research program for first time parents and I’m having such a hard time trying to get him to stay on his back. 😞

Answer

When my son started rolling, if he got himself into that position I left him. I always laid him down on his back, but if he moved or rolled I just let him be where he wanted

Answer

My daughter is 7 weeks and the only way she sleeps is on her belly. I’m gonna ask her doctor if that’s okay because she sleeps hardly 10 mins when she’s on her side or her back

Answer

My oldest daughter only way she would sleep was on her belly so for a long time I had her sleep on my chest(we were breastfeeding too so made it easier for us) but after 4 months of that I finally got her to sleep next to me and by 18 months she was in her own bed

Answer

It’s perfectly fine for him to sleep on his belly if he puts himself there. What’s the study?

Answer

Once they can roll themselves, it’s okay to leave them on their belly. 
My daughter slept on her back until she could roll, then mostly either her side or belly.
