Sleep

rolling in a grobag?

this morning I found my 9 month old LO one her front in her cot. I rolled her back over, went to the loo and when I got back she had flipped back onto her tummy. Obviously she's more comfortable that way, and I've read that once they can roll on their own it's fine for them to sleep on their fronts, but I'm a bit concerned about the sleeping bag. Is she safe on her tummy in a grobag? I'm worried she's less able to manoeuver herself around...

Yes, perfectly safe. Neither of my 2 had any problems rolling around in their Grobags. It ocassionally end up sort of spiralled around them but it never seemed to bother them. What would you use instead? A Grobag is much safer than a blanket which could potentially get caught over the face of a baby.

Yep, perfectly normal and fine. The bag is great at this time as she'll start doing all sorts of manoeuvres around the bed, and the bag will go with her so she'll stay warm, and can't get it over her face.

My 2 year old ds walks around the room in his grow bag, stand up maggot style. It doesn't stop them!

As, yes, the maggot shuffle Curls. DD1 was brilliant at that. They look like they're about to participate in a sack race!
