Waking in the night

[Louboo2245]

My DD is 6 months from 4 weeks she has slept on her tummy and this has stood us in good stead as she started sleeping through at about 8 weeks.

Unfortunately she has just learnt to roll over and she has started to wake in the early hours of the morning, I go in to find her on her back and width ways across her cot. She goes back to sleep as soon as i put her back on her stomach.

Any ideas, should I just leave her to settle herself or just put up with it and hope she grows out of it.

I'd like to point out that she isn't screaming when she wakes up she is just makes a lot of noise.

Any help?

Ds2 did exactly the same when he first learnt to roll over and it was a bloody nightmare. She will grow out if it and for now at night I would go in and turn her over til she does learn to do it herself (grr). Maybe in the day you could try and teach her to roll back and onto her front, I did this and found it helped DS2 to be able to do it himself. Eventually!

Opposite view: I'd leave her, I don't think I helped us to go in and roll DD back. Esp if not crying.

I'd second the daytime practice though!

Sorry I haven't been back to you ladies, had a blinding couple of days (long story) To be honest I don't know if I could leave her
It's not the worrying about her, it's the amount of noise she makes. She is loud my girl. DGD thinks she's going to be an opera singer. So might just go flip her over just to continue my nights sleep, if it goes on for a while I might have to start leaving her, I don't want it to become habit

you could get ear plugs unless there are people in your house who she'd wake?

Does she sleep in a sleeping bag? If she does you could see how she is without it so she could move more.

She doesn't have a sleeping bag, tried in one when she was younger but never took to it.

we DH has got the day off tomorrow so might try leaving her tonight as I won't have to get up tomorrow

ok, let me know how you get on? DS2 has just started crawling and tries to practice it in his cot!

Just remember the MN saying - this to shall pass!
