Is it safe for my 4 month old...?
Answer:
Leave her be. If she is a good roller now, then she is FINE to sleep on her tummy. She can move around herself now. Just don't leave soft bedding, toys in there for her to get tangled up in.
My first would roll onto his tummy when we put him down and this is what our doc told us.
ETA:
I asked about the sleep positioners too and my doc agreed that they are really for babies who aren't mobile yet. Putting one of those in with a baby who is rolling is more likely to cause problems than to keep the baby on her back.
my son did the same thing... with his butt in the air... so cute.. make sure that it is a flat surface, no pillow no blankets to minimize any suffocating... and she will be fine... he still sleeps on his belly...
Velcro prevents kids from rolling.
i used to use duct tape, but my neighbor got arrested for child abuse.. i guess he used too much tape.
Have you tried a sleep positioner to help keep her on her back? I think at 4 months you should still strive to have her sleep on her back to reduce risk of SIDS. If you can't afford a sleep positioner you can try rolling some receiving blankets lengthwise and wedging them next to her torso to prevent her from rolling.
get a wedge that holds her on her back
nar its ok she must feel better sleeping on her belly at less its not her back but while she on her belly if she gona be sick its gona come up with her chockin on her own sick so you should be glad she likes to lie on her belly
it ok becuse they do it she should stop and not that how she like to sleep
its okay to leave her on her tummy when she rolls over.
yes it is. its around that time when they roll they like sleeping on their tummy. my son did it and he was fine.
My son's been sleeping on his stomach since birth almost. Once they can roll over themselves its not so bad to leave them becuase obvisouly they can roll themevles on their back too.
If your daughter does that, she's trying to tell you something.."Hey mom, I'm old enough to lay how I want!" The American Pediatric Association says babies should sleep on their backs until they begin to put themselves how they want to sleep. Don't worry if this is what she chooses. Just be sure that there are no loose sheets, pillows or toys that she can get hung up on. Check out www.verybestbaby.com for other sleep stuff.
I wouldn't worry about it if I were you. It would seem that she is developing a preference for sleeping on her stomach. Let her do it.
If you are worrying about SIDS, do know that most SIDS deaths are of babies UNDER four months.
as long as she can roll over, she is fine. she would be able to lift herself if need be.
my daughter slept on her tummy from day one...or on her side. and thankfully she doesn't have that flat head i see so many babies with *ew!*
but my daughter could lift her face from 2 weeks on...so we knew she was ok. and she is now 7.
She feels more comfortable that way. You can't stop it. You just heve to be on alert. When I was a child, I prefered laying on my stomach. Guess what? I grew up! I am now 67yo.
P.s., I now sleep on my side. My body has changed. Other changes have occured as well.
It's fine, because as long as she can roll over properly, she is able to roll away if her breathing is obstructed in any way.
actually i have 3 children and they all did that,,,i would worry myself to death about it,,,,,i think everything will be fine but i did keep checking on them just to make sure ,,,,i'd just let her be as long as you keep checking,,,,but i'm sure she'll be fine,,,,by the way very cute pic,,,,,,good luck
