Baby-poll Is it okay to put a 4 month old baby to bed on his tummy if he would sleep better that way?

I never put my son on his tummy. Once he could roll to his tummy, I didn`t roll him back over though.

Oh, and now that my lo is 5 months now he is like Lemony`s, from belly to back to side, he`s all over his crib!

if your baby isnt turning over on to his or her tummy on their own yet then you should wait. Its recomended that each abby be put to sleep on their back until they can turn on their own (this way they have more motor skills and can turn their head if needed) My daughter started to roll to her tummy at 3 months and i would leave her to sleep that way!

I never let any of my babies sleep on their tummies b/c of the back to sleep campaign, but this lo, well, he`s been sleeping on his tummy from about 6 weeks old. He just slept soooooo good that way, and he could already lift his head up good too. He would actually cry to be put on his tummy! IDK, when I was younger my mom put all my lil bros on their bellies to sleep and that was what was considered the safe way b/c they said if baby was on their back and spit up they could choke, then they changed it. So I guess its all up to what you think is safest/best for your lo.

I`m with xolblondieox. My LO was a tummy sleeper from 4 weeks of age only because she was born with great head control. She sleeps awesome, of course now she rolls but she is like her Daddy, one minute on her tummy, the next her side, then her back, then all the way back to tummy haha.

Well, Back to Bed, Front to Play is what the experts say BUT, I do also know some kids sleep better on their tummies. So, like all these ladies say, if they prefer to sleep on their tummies, they will naturally do that.

  2. ok ladies, my pictures are all gone from my profile but my blogs and polls are still there,.. i have been waiting to see if it was just a glitch and they would come back but they havent.. do i need to make a new profile to fix it?
  3. When did do you pack your hospital bag?
  4. Regarding Porn on Polls
  5. Went to see Man On A Ledge on Tues.......BRILLIANT!!
  6. My friend has just started taking fertility tablets which the DR said could increase her chances of having twins by 10%. Did this work for any of you and did you have twins?
  7. OMG, I posted on FB (in reponse to a suggestion made to me on From Our House To Yours) that I didn`t like a business because the items were very expensive and my friend got a bad deal there and the owner is threatening to sue me! Have you ever heard of such a thing? I actually paid a consultation fee and my lawyer told me that she was `absurd with possible mental health problems.` I am protected by the fisrt ammendment to express my honest opinions freely where I choose, but he said she can take it to court(because people can TRY to sue over anything) anyway and that it might cost me legal bills. We will both be out a lot of money because she couldn`t possibly win. Can you believe that? FML! First my records and now this! I hope my baby isn`t a bad luck baby. I see people not recommending or recommending businesses all the time on FB!
  8. Is SaraKelly still on here? I know she was a mod but I didn`t see her post in the previous Who Is A Mod poll...
  9. ANGRY!!!! My jenakers account is missing my ENTIRE journal from my high risk pregnancy and my letthisonestick account for my 7 month old is completely gone along with my journal. I AM SICK OVER IT!
  10. I`ve re-thought the moderating of the member-postings. How does this sound? Let`s change it to usage, rather than length of time as a member. Say your first 10 or 20 polls, questions and pictures need to be approved by a Mod or something like that. Someone posting the racist polls and adding the kiddie porn is unlikely to participate as a normal member. Once you are verified as a regular member you`re no longer monitored.
