Sleeping on stomach (9 months old)
Sometimes Kevin has been rolling over and falling to sleep on his stomach. I've been going in and turning him over.
Is it ok to leave him on his stomach at 9 months?

Unless you want to roll him over every time he sleeps, I'd say it's just fine.

Jack is 4 months and sleep on his stomach. I put him in his crib on his back and when I go in to get him he is usually on his tummy on the opposite side on the crib!
I think it is fine as long as he can hold his head up good. Jack can so I am not worried.

Jared has been rolling over on his stomach too. He's also nine months. I don't think there's anything wrong..as long as there's nothing else in the crib.

Once my daughter was able to roll herself over, I let her stay however she was comfy and made sure there was nothing loose or soft in the crib.

As long as he can lift his head/roll over and there's nothing in the crib, it shouldn't be a problem at all. Christopher has slept on his stomach since day one.

I did the same thing, and finally called her doctor when I got tired of getting up so much to move her. He said that once they can roll over on their own you don't have to worry about putting them on their back to sleep. Now Sarah will automatically roll to her side if you put her down any other way.

He can roll and hold his head up but his face gets so smushed into the mattress I'm worried he's just breathing in "bad air" or not getting enough air.
