Still now at 8 weeks old he sleeps swaddled on his side. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/3-month-old-rolling-to-side-to-sleep#post-2597765 Wed, 03 Aug 2016 12:14:03 +0000 sailgrl18 2597765@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He should be fine assuming there's nothing else in the crib with him. DS2 started rolling to his belly at night a little after he turned 3 months. We talked to the pediatrician and she said it was ok to leave him as he was likely strong enough now because he was capable of rolling back to belly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/3-month-old-rolling-to-side-to-sleep#post-2597536 Wed, 03 Aug 2016 08:21:04 +0000 youboots 2597536@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>T was a tummy sleeper from 4 months. At first it made me anxious but she's comfortable and happy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/3-month-old-rolling-to-side-to-sleep#post-2597505 Wed, 03 Aug 2016 07:35:59 +0000 YogiRunner 2597505@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@meadow: @Mrs. Lemon-Lime: @Foodnerd81: Okay PHEW. Thank you! He was up again a few times last night and each time we put him back to sleep he'd roll right to his side. I couldn't see him breathing on the monitor so I definitely went in to check a few times!</p> <p>Then this morning, from the time I got out of bed when I saw him stirring on the monitor until I got to his room, he had rolled on his belly! I felt bad, his whole arm was out of the crib in between the railings and he wasn't a happy camper 😬 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/3-month-old-rolling-to-side-to-sleep#post-2597503 Wed, 03 Aug 2016 07:34:59 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2597503@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Totally fine. My newborn was doing this (like at day 2 home) and the pediatrician agreed just to let her sleep. As long as you put them on their back to sleep, thats all you can do. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/3-month-old-rolling-to-side-to-sleep#post-2597475 Wed, 03 Aug 2016 05:59:09 +0000 Foodnerd81 2597475@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Totally fine! As long as he rolled there himself it's ok. Can you see that he's breathing through the monitor? Not that it's necessary- he is!- but I know I used to like that reassurance anyway. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/3-month-old-rolling-to-side-to-sleep#post-2597468 Wed, 03 Aug 2016 04:39:21 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 2597468@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It'a fine. LO started rolling onto his side about 2 months old too and just stayed in that position. At 3 months he figured how to roll onto his tummy. So far he hasn't needed my assistance to help make sure his airways are open. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/3-month-old-rolling-to-side-to-sleep#post-2597465 Wed, 03 Aug 2016 03:50:28 +0000 meadow 2597465@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LOs are 2 months and have been rolling to their sides frequently for at least a month....they can't roll all the way to their stomachs yet, so I'm not worried. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/3-month-old-rolling-to-side-to-sleep#post-2597451 Wed, 03 Aug 2016 00:35:14 +0000 YogiRunner 2597451@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm writing this in the MOTN because I can't sleep, staring at my baby sleeping on his side on the baby monitor. This is night 2 of him being in his own room. When I left the room he was on his back, but by the time I got down the hall back to my room and checked the monitor he was on his side. I'm scared he'll roll over and not be able to get back. Ugh. </p> <p>Help my insomnia by telling me this is okay! </p>
