Help! Rolling 9 wk old..

My 9 week old has just learnt to roll onto his front, great. However once on his front he then cries. I guess because he doesn't know what to do and can't get himself back or crawl or whatever. So every time he rolls onto his front and cries I roll him back onto his back but then he cries again and rolls over again onto his front! I'm going mad I've literally spent all day rolling him back again and again!!

Yeah, I had one of these too. There's not much you can do about it! He may well learn to roll back soon though. Then my DS realised he could roll himself around in circles which was entertaining!

What happened with your DC culturesucks what did they do once they rolled over?

Try and show him how to roll back, rather than just flipping him over, to help him learn how to do it himself.
You might be in for an early crawler (Ds1 6 months, DS2 5 months)

Similar to your DS, he would eventually get fed up of being on his front so I would have to roll him back. He was also an early crawler. He learnt to do a kind of commando crawl at around 5 months progressing to a proper crawl at 6 months.
