Rachelle and Isom's mom,
Thanks for your posts.
Last night was the worst night in the last 3 months or so. I think he may be teething and it's arousing him more and when he does, he rolls over to his back. He was more awake last night than asleep.
I tried to have his arms down by his side and swaddled him. Then I watched him. He can still lift his behind way up in the air and roll over. So unless I can wrap him in a way that he can't arch his back, it seems like bigger blanket won't matter. However, I will check out the General section on different ways to swaddle since I did notice that when he is about to roll in such manner, he does bring his arms down to help arch his back.
As for your suggestion, Isom's mom, I have tried to "pin" him against the side of the crib in the direction that he rolls and putthing rolled up towel on the other side. Still he managed to rub his back against the bumper and eventually complete his roll.
I know, this kid is stubborn. LOL He is so perfect in every other way except this sleeping issue. Everyday he gets stronger and more mobile and it's getting harder and harder to keep him still so he can get a good night sleep.
This questio may not be right in this section but I was wondering, do babies get fussy during the day when they are teething or just at night when they are trying to sleep?
I'm afraid my last resort is to do PU/PD with him on his back as well. He is getting pretty good at falling asleep on his belly without even doing PU/PD. But I know he will cry more and have a harder time on his back.
