Babies: 3 - 6 Months

Twisting and burying face before falling asleep?

Anyone else's LO do this?  The past 3 weeks, when DS gets overly tired he will start twisting his body around with a few violent jerks thrown in for good measure.  He will twist back and forth for 10-15 minutes and preferably be on his side.  If he is on the bed with us (supervised) on a pillow or with a little blankie, he will bury his face into the pillow sideways, his head curled like he is looking upwards...  It is so freaking weird.  Anyone else see this??

  • Yes.  My DS does it all the time.  At first it was alarming, but then I found out lots of LOs do it, so I felt better

  • OMG, our LO does this too! She'll roll on her side, then try to bury her face in the mattress. I think she's trying to get herself comfortable or something. Little weirdo.
