4 month old rubbing their face against next to me crib

My LO is 16 weeks and is a very active sleeper. She kicks constantly and moves to the side of her next to me crib. She gets stuck and rubs her face against the sides, she does this a lot and her face ends up red, raw and sore. Does anyone have any advice? She also has eczema on her body, is on Neocate LCP and hates her hands being restricted. When she wakes me up I will move her back to the middle but she will wriggle back.

Is she doing it to itch against?

She has been doing this for a few weeks, before her skin flare up. But now it is making her really sore.

Move her into her cot, sounds like she needs more space. Next to me cribs aren’t that stable so if she’s wriggly, she’ll be getting stuck
