I plan to get a Snuza Go monitor to make sure, but it still makes me nervous. It does seem like if he can flip over himself, then he should be able to flip back if he gets uncomfortable or has any difficulties.

And now... it's a bad thing. <br />I agree with the person above that said not to worry about it. Honestly, they "warn" against so many things these days, and although it's well intentioned... it's not NECESSARY. I think he'll be fine on his tummy. You can't control what he does in his sleep. <br />Follow your heart, and do what you feel is best!Mandy@ a sorta fairytalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08748261732968499309noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7914792841863143393.post-22967600449850549552011-01-28T21:47:04.987-05:002011-01-28T21:47:04.987-05:00Ohhhh, I did not know that.

LOL.<br /><br />Yes, he can turn his head and lift himself up a little. :)<br /><br />I agree! He has nothing in his crib.<br /><br />Thank you so much! You have made me feel a lot better. I am trying to trust myself but in the back of my mind I still question.Jessie Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16320871050012921834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7914792841863143393.post-33089388924049730162011-01-28T21:36:13.918-05:002011-01-28T21:36:13.918-05:00Honestly, your doctor HAS to tell you not to let y...Honestly, your doctor HAS to tell you not to let your baby sleep on his stomach. It's what the AAP, so it's what your doctor is going to say. <br />My advice? Don't worry about it. Kale started sleeping on his stomach at 3 months - it was the ONLY way he'd sleep. Since he could easily lift his head and turn it (which I'm sure Brayden can do), I didn't worry. And when I stopped worrying, we all slept better. <br />Also - you have NO IDEA the circumstances that were involved with the other patients baby who died. There could have been too many blankets and pillows, they could have been sleeping beside a smoker, etc. Don't let your doctor use scare tactics to make you question your parenting. It sounds like you're doing the right thing by putting Brayden in his swing when he's breathy heavy, and it's clear from the picture above that he has a safe and clean sleep environment. <br />Listen to your intuition.Randalin @ Harvesting Kalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06086600767171526226noreply@blogger.com
