Baby gets stuck on belly at night. HELP!

Whitney DDWhitney DD
in February 2011 Moms

My little girl rolls over in her sleep and gets stuck on her belly. Wakes up crying and then when I flip her over and put her back to sleep, continues to do this 2-3 times a night eventually getting to the point where she is awake. She also does this weird thing where she kicks and lifts her feet up and tries to roll over with her eyes closed but this will eventually wake her up. I have used rolled up towels as positioners that seem to work for about an hour but she scoots so she gets past them. I'm EXHAUSTED and want a real nights sleep just once please.

Aside from duct taping her to the mattress, does anyone have suggestions?

    Lilly is doing this too - I just hope it is a phase. I am not sure what else to do about it. I may up tummy time so she can get more accustomed to being on her tummy.

    DS rolls over as soon as I put him down b/c he wants to sleep that way.  Not sure what to do since she wakes up.. Maybe put her back in a RNP if you have one...

    Come on Sticky baby!!

    DS flips in the night too and sometimes wakes himself up.  Since he started rolling to his tummy the minute I put him down, I just let him be, otherwise we'll be battling all night.

    It's a phase. Just keep telling yourself that it will be over soon.

    DD did this for about a week...now she seems pretty content with sleeping on her stomach.  I think that she just has to get used to it.  It was really annoying though and we used the swing a lot more than usual.

    My DD did the exact same thing for about two weeks. But now I find her sleeping on her stomach no problem. I think she is use to it now.

    We started swaddling arms out.  Seems to help.  Also, we have a huge pillow pet on her side that kind of blocks her from rolling in her sleep (it's far enough down that it only blocks her legs, not her upper body or face).
