He only flips onto his back when he's really deeply asleep and he only started doing that when he was like 1.5 years old. We always (and still do) put him down on his back but he always ends up on his tummy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleeping-on-tummy#post-134681 Mon, 23 Apr 2012 21:02:31 +0000 sandy 134681@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs. wagon: she had some hard boogies just about to fall out of her nose after her nap!</p> <p>Ok I feel better about just leaving her on her tummy bc you guys say its ok if she just falls asleep :) So far for 2 naps she has been on her tummy and now we just put her down for the night so we'll see how that goes :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleeping-on-tummy#post-134665 Mon, 23 Apr 2012 20:46:10 +0000 mrs. wagon 134665@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely leave her! Especially if she can pick up her head and change to the other side... that means she's ready to tummy sleep. The first time Wagon Jr. did that, he slept on his tummy so well and has EVERY NIGHT since then. And it REALLY helps with the poops and the boogies! I'd find hard boogies just lying on the crib sheet because gravity would just pull them out :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleeping-on-tummy#post-134647 Mon, 23 Apr 2012 20:33:35 +0000 heffalump 134647@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I flipped my LO over for so long, even though I knew by then it was safe for her. It just made me sleep better. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleeping-on-tummy#post-134612 Mon, 23 Apr 2012 19:58:59 +0000 Mrs. Bee 134612@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i wish olive would go back to sleep when she rolls onto her tummy. she cries until i come get her! i would definitely just leave her! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleeping-on-tummy#post-134601 Mon, 23 Apr 2012 19:54:47 +0000 Rubies 134601@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Same here - as soon as LO learned to flip, I left her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleeping-on-tummy#post-134599 Mon, 23 Apr 2012 19:54:12 +0000 banana 134599@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>As soon as my LO learned to flip over, I just left him. He eventually figured out to roll back on his own. She's probably just really comfortable on her tummy and doesn't want to flip back! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleeping-on-tummy#post-134596 Mon, 23 Apr 2012 19:53:16 +0000 chopsuey 134596@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would just leave her. Especially if she's falling back asleep! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/sleeping-on-tummy#post-134594 Mon, 23 Apr 2012 19:52:28 +0000 sandy 134594@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO is 5 months old and just started rolling over onto her tummy in her crib. She seems to have forgotten how to roll from tummy to back. She fusses for a while and then falls asleep. Should I just leave her or flip her over? </p>
