Yes. My baby does it too. Someone told me it's a reflex and they lose it.

My son did too, the nurses in the hospital we're putting him slightly on his side to begin with. One night I woke up to check on him and he was on his side, only 2 days after being home and still recovering from my csection, I literally sprung out of bed to make sure he was ok (paid for it later hahaha). It turned out the bassinet I had my son in wasn't comfortable for him because it was too flat and had an issue with spitting up which is why he would sleep on his side, he's always been a smart kid. Eventually we got him a new bassinet that had an inclined insert and I was able to buckle him into it so he slept better and couldn't turn on his side. Win win 😊

#momlifechats Moms,

#momlifechats Moms, Welcome to #momlifechats! We’re so excited to welcome Infant & Child Sleep Consultant Hailee Schollaardt (@nurturingsleepsolutions). Hailee has been a Certified Sleep Consultant for 3.5 years. She has 3 kids aged 4.5 years, 2.5 years and 6 months and knows all too well the difficulties of a non-sleeping baby. “My first baby was 11 months old before he slept his first 2 hour stretch (It was a wednesday) and since then I became obsessed with learning about sleep!” Hailee classifies herself as more of a gentle sleep coach and encourages parents to do what works best for their own family. “Always advocate for your family and your baby! After all, you know them best!” She has worked with many families and loves providing tools to help improve sleep for every family she meets. Healthy Sleep equals Happy Families! Hailee’s top 3 sleep tips: 1.) Create a baby cave! The body is cued by light levels and so darkness in the room environment is so important. We want that room to be pitch black if we can. This helps newborns feel at home (in the womb) and it help’s older babies produce sleep hormones. 2.) Use white noise. This is my “must have” in any sleep space. It helps newborns feel at home because it sounds like the womb and it helps older babies to cycle through sleep cycles. Use a constant sound such as static, heavy rainfall or a vacuum. Make sure it does not turn off after a certain interval as we want it to be playing the whole time to help those sleep cycles! 3.) Build strong routines. This is not the same as a schedule. A routine is just the steps you do before putting your baby down to sleep. Each step in that routine triggers the brain to release sleep hormones. Essentially, it acts as your baby’s clock telling the body what time it is… sleep time! Inconsistent sleep routines can lead to inconsistent sleep!
