Van he role?

iirc he wil be ok if he can roll on his own. if your concerned wake him. you'll not get any rest yourself if your worrying.

He can role, and sort of body slink, not crawling yet, he is my 3dc, but i have forgotten all of this, feel a bit daft to be honest thank for getting back to me

Fine to let him find his own position - you're just not supposed to put them down on their front.

would he be wide awake if you moved him?

i had a dilema with dd last night and decided to wake her. I would of been up and down checking her all night otherwise

A 9 month old who can roll is fine sleeping on his front - most babies do sleep on their tummies once they can roll.

from 6 months you can let them find their own sleeping position so I would leave him on his tummy
