Baby turning and scaring herself?

This might be the 4mw, but I don't think so... Someone please shed some light!

My LO is about 4.5 months (19 weeks) and for the past 3-4 nights has been waking up almost every hour screaming! She only does this when she turns onto her stomach though, and I think she screams in her sleep, because her eyes are closed...

I'm thinking she's turning in her sleep and just freaking herself out. Anyone else encounter this? What did you do?

Re: Baby turning and scaring herself?

  • Yes. M turns onto his stomach, gets stuck and then wakes up screaming. It's fantastic.

    It happened 5 times Saturday night, but only once last night. We worked on rolling from tummy to back like it was our job yesterday, but I'm not sure if that was why it was better last night.

  • I guess we'll definitely try extra tummy time for the next few days! Thanks @KateMW‌

    This sucks!

    Same here…my LO rolls and gets stuck and starts screaming.  Sometimes she even rolls and accidentally smacks her face against the side of the crib when she lifts her head to scream.  Poor girl.  Hoping she'll figure out how to roll tummy to back soon.
