7mo rolls over in sleep keeps us up. Help!!!

[csmith13]

My 7mo rolls from his back to his tummy during the night.  He still hasn't mastered how to get back on his back, and he usually wakes up and cries until we out him back on his back.  Any suggestions on how to stop him from doing this?  Or is this just a phase?  We're having to get up every 45minutes to 1hr during the night and are pretty tired.  Help!

It's really common for sleep to be disturbed when LO learns a new skill like rolling.  For us, we had about a week of her getting 'stuck' and annoyed on her tummy and having to flip her over again, before she decided it was far more comfortable to sleep that way up and sleep got better again . Can I just check that he isn't swaddled if he is able to roll?

We had this too, I just used to play lots of rolling onto tummy and back games in the day but then he just decided he liked tummy or side sleeping better!!
It will pass think it took about 2 weeks for us on and off.
Good luck

Good to know!  Will keep helping him out until he decides how he wants to sleep.

Jessmum46-no, he is no longer swaddled
