Suggestions for getting a squirmy 9 mo old to sleep on an incline?

DS needs to sleep inclined because of reflux and congestion. We have one side of the crib slightly inclined, but he squirms so much suring his sleep he winds up rolling down to the bottom or in the reverse position. We did have him sleeping in the swing, but the last two mornings I found him stuck in it trying to roll onto his side (plus his feet are starting to hang off the end), so sadly, the swing is getting packed away. Any suggestions on how to work this out in the crib?

Hi Nicole,
This may not help because my dd is only 9 weeks. She is still sleeping in her bouncy seat 'cause she hates sleeping on her back, but a couple of times I did get her in the crib in one of those sleep positioners. To add more of an incline, I rolled up some receiving blankets and put them under the positioner.
Hope you find something that works for himl Chat Icon

Thanks, but he's too old for one of those sleep positioners or rolled up blankets now that he rolls over and is all over the place. This is why I'm stuck. And he just got his first ear infection and it was 3 days of screaming that we had to take off from work. I'm afriad of more ear infections from the congestion if we don't come up with a solution....
