my 9 month old dd has taken to sleeping on her front, is this normal and safe?

my lo's did it, they were able to turn by themselves and seemed to be ok.

fine and safe

dd started it at the same time

she can roll easily now so worry not

Perfectly normal...my dd2 sleeps on her front all the time. She started this at about 10 months.

DD has done it from about 5 months once she started to roll.

thanks for that, shes been sleeping far better since she's started doing it, its as tho she finally feels comfortable!

Tbh, there's not much you can do if she's turning by herself, other than stay up all night turning her onto her back. I wouldn't worry too much.

yes dd started sleeping through as soon as she slept on her tummy. she seemed so much more comfy.

yes ds started sleeping on front when rolled at 5 mo, there was nothing I could so, plus it was good as he started sleeping through too. Now he turns straight onto front whenever you put him in cot. Doesn't like any covers on him either !

Dd sleeps on her front but doesn't sleep through. Sorry, I seem to be repeating myself. Again and again and again.

DD has started doing this and she's only 18 weeks. She can roll back to front but not front to back. She also buries her face in the matress the way she buries in my chest when she's asleep on me. Is it safe to leave her? Unless I stay up all night and keep watch there's not much I can do...

Eyeballsinthesky - yes DD (now 9 months) did all of this from about 5 months as she started to roll then too. They have little snout noses so can breathe quite easily despite how it looks and most are more comfortable on their fronts... so don't worry (but I did too so all quite normal!)

Thanks Mary. Every day brings something new to worry about, doesn't it?!

Yes - tis true...but they are quite resilient - having said that worried all the bloody time no 1 now we have no 2 an much more relaxed ....well relatively speaking !
