Does anybody baby sleep on their stomach? Like a young baby? Why isn't it safe? I know about the whole SIDS but I still…

it's because if they gets their head turned down they might not have the strength or know how to turn it back and could suffocate I'd try on the side

my son used to sleep on his stomach all the time when he was a newborn, but he could also pick his head up for the most part

yeh but I started later because he moves a lot he starting to scoot like hes crawling like he does the most

Oh wow! I'll wait till she's a little older to start her on her tummy. @dynette

My baby sleeps on her side too. She sleeps so much better that way. She won't sleep on her back unless I put her in her rock n play. @kdcmommy26

@marcelljessica, yeh my son was 5lbs 13 ounces

My baby is nosey also!! & fights her sleep like she gone miss something! @kartersmommy0917

my baby is 15 wks today and every since he was born i always let him sleep on his stomach.at first i would turn him from stomach to his sides every nap..when he was in nicu,they did the same..we co- sleep.so he is under the covers with me,but the covers are half-way up his body.i never really understood sleeping on the back..my baby has reflux.and i never know when he is going to vomit..ive seen him choke on his back..i still keep an eye on him tho.

My baby will be a month next week and I'm just scared to do it because she's so little. @dynette

My baby has been holding his head up since he came out the womb lol. He is extremely nosy

I always let my baby sleep on his stomach cause it seems like he will sleep much better and sleep thru the night and he's only 2 months

For my baby to be only 4 weeks, she moves her head well too! I'm just so scared to let her sleep through the night on her tummy. A friend of mine told me that was the only way her daughter would sleep also. @their.bomb.ass.mom

My daughter refused to sleep any other way but on her belly, she'll be a year old in a week and still sleeps that way. I lost so many hours of sleep watching her sleep when she was really little, but I always kept her in her crib with just a fitted sheet and no blanket/stuffed animals and made sure her head was turned. I felt more comfortable when she could move her head on her own though, like now. Around 4 months she could move her head fine and I didn't worry as much.

She only sleeps good when she's on me! Like she doesn't like sleeping by herself at all. Or she'll sleep good when she knows I'm beside her. She won't sleep in her crib or the bassinet that I had for her. @kartersmommy0917

you're welcome 😊

Will do! Thank y'all! @xolovingisaiah @arians_mommy.

He sleeps so much better that way! Now that he's older I feel a little better. I just keep blankets and pillows and stuff away from his sleeping space

@marcelljessica, yeah. Not thru the night just yet.

yeah definitely only do that for nap time when she's supervised cause they can easily suffocate

Lol, that's how I am! @kartersmommy0917

Oh okay. So I shouldn't let her sleep through the night like this? Just like a nap or something? @arians_mommy.

I let my baby sleep on his back now but he is almost 4 months. I started when he was a little over 2 months though. I just never got any sleep watching him like a hawk lol

Because they don't know how to make sure they have room to breathe. They learn that a little later on around 4-5 months
