(Nearly) 4 month old rolling onto one side only

Hi all,

My nearly 4 month old son only ever rolls onto his right side (he hasn't rolled over fully onto his tummy yet) and I'm really concerned as to why he doesn't even attempt to ever roll onto his left side. When he's in his cot at night he only ever turns/rolls to his right when he's asleep.

Generally he uses both arms and hands for swiping/reaching for toys, kicks both legs when playing on his mat and is really great at tummy time.

Can anybody reassure me?

@Yorkiemum89 please don't worry. My first only ever rolled one way onto her tummy. She started rolling at 4ish months too.
She learnt to sit when she was 7 months and walked at 11 months. Talking in sentences before aged 2 and ahead with all the milestones at her 2 year check. No need to worry! I just think it's maybe a preference they have, similar to choosing a hand to write with.
