Default Sleeping on tummy

Liam only seems to sleep on his tummy except when he is nursing. I will move him on his back and he wakes up. Does any other baby want to sleep on their tummy only? This worries me, I know it can be dangerous.

My babe will only sleep with me... So in turn, mom is a very light sleeper now!

Some babies only want to tummy sleep... I know when I was a baby they told mothers to put babies on their tummies only.
That monitor seems like it would be a great way to keep you both sane.

In Sweden, I believe, instead of doing the "back to sleep" campaign they let babes sleep on their tummies and just used organic mattresses/sheets/etc, and had just as good of results reducing SIDS as we did


If you're super worried, will he sleep on his side? DS1 always wanted to sleep on his tummy, but I found that if I nursed him to sleep lying down and then unlatched him and replaced w/ paci, he'd naturally roll onto his back.

My kids have always slept on their sides, and sometimes their backs.

Alex will sleep however you lay him but he sleeps the best on his tummy. We let him sleep on his tummy during the day while we are awake.
