The past week DD really has started the process of learning how to crawl..she can put her knees up under her and rock a little bit..but since this she has really started to move around in her sleep and flips and puts her knees up under her and rocks  (all in her sleep) ..well MAINLY the big change is every time I put her down for a nap or bedtime within 5 min she gets mad and does all sorts of flipped before falling asleep on her tummy in the corner of the crib...if I try to flip her over she gets maaaad. Anyone else's LO decide to switch all of a sudden?

    As soon as DD was able to roll easily onto her tummy, she started sleeping that way.  I put her down on her back and she immediately rolls over and curls up.  She did the same thing when she started rolling onto her side.  I've heard that a lot of babies do this.

    Since she learned to roll DD now sleeps on her side, back, or tummy. Every time I go to get her from a nap she's in some new position. I don't worry about it, she'll usually yell out if she's stuck in a corner or something.

    DD started doing that when she was 7 months old. Every time I'd put her down in her crib she'd roll over on her tummy and fall asleep. Since she wasn't fussing I just left her that way. That coincided with her STTN so I was very happy!

    DS did too. Once they can roll over, there's no need to try to roll them back onto their backs.

    DS has been a belly sleeper for a while now.  He hates to sleep on his back.

    DD switched to a tummy sleeper as soon as she could roll which was just about 1 week after 4 months old.  She has no problem rolling at all so I don't worry.
