What month did you stop stressing over your DC sleeping on his/her tummy at night?
For the last few weeks AJ rolls and rolls and rolls all night long. Every time I check on him, he is sleeping on his tummy which makes me a nervous wreck.
I spend all night getting up to flip him back over. I feel like I am making pancakes all night long and I am tired.
At what point can I relax and know that he is safe?

You can relax now 
Once they are physically able to roll themselves over onto their bellies, its safe to let them sleep that way.

I think he was like 6 months when I stopped checking a billion times.

Once he started doing it on his own, I never really gave it a second thought. If he wants to sleep that way fine, because I know he can get himself on to his back if he wants or he will yell if he gets stuck.
DS is just under 6 months. I check on him 1x per night just before I go to bed.

She was about 5 months before I was able to sleep through the night without checking on her a million times or sitting up just staring at the video monitor to make sure she was still alive.

I think I started letting DS sleep on his belly at 4 months...and stopped worrying about it soon after...he slept so much better and is a strong boy so I didnt worry too much...

I stopped stressing when I realized that no matter how many times I went into her room in the middle of the night to turn her back over, my attempts were useless!
Every time I went back in there, she was on her belly again- so I just stopped moving her to her back.
She was probably around 3 months.

As soon as they were old enough to roll themselves, I didn't worry about it.

When he could roll over on his own easily. As soon as they can do that, they are fine.

between 6 & 7 months she was rolling to her belly to sleep at night. But she is a great roller, so I knew she could roll back if she couldn't breathe.
