Stomach sleeping? Need quick help.
She is 5 months old and rolled from back to stomach yesterday for the first time.
She just started sleeping in her crib last week. I just went in there and she is sleeping on her stomach (I put her on her back).
Should I let her? I don't think she will be able to roll back if she wants or needs to.

Re: Stomach sleeping? Need quick help.
I rolled my daughter back for a few weeks until one day I woke her up and she was mmaaaaddd. I asked the pediatrician who said that if she is able to roll onto her belly than she is fine to stay there. If I had been able to roll her without waking I might have done it longer, but I was disrupting her sleep.

Is she able to roll back from stomach to back?
If she is then I don't think you should worry about it. Some nights she'll probably just prefer to sleep on her belly.

She has rolled from stomach to back, but I don't think she gets it yet. I don't think she would know to do it if she needed to.

My son will be 6 months old next week and he often rolls onto his stomach. I just go in and roll him onto his back. I heard that if they are able to roll back on their own it is ok to keep them on their stomach.

Katie hasn't fussed either. That is why I don't want to move her. Did Alyson roll on to her belly herself?

Emma rolls onto her belly. She can't roll back yet - but I don't touch her - Usually she'll wake up when she realizes she's on her belly - then I roll her over.

I'm a big fan of belly sleeping, so you'd know what I'd say.

I always move him, but he rolls back. It is actually kind of cute on his knees with but in the air and hands tucked under his belly.
