To let your LO sleep on their tummy? My month old love's to sleep on his tummy and he seems to sleep better and longer on it but i'am so scared to let him sleep like that at night i let him take nap's during the day like that and i keep an eye on him.

It's not recommended.

What I did with my son was rolled up 2 receiving blankets, put them infront and behind him..so he could sleep on his side

I let my daughter sleep on her belly only when I'm there. I get nervous too!

I don't put my daughter down on her tummy when we're going to bed for the night, but during naps I let her if i'm going to be up of course so I can keep an eye on her she loves her tummy too!

The "back to sleep" campaign was not made up just for fun.
What I don't understand is how mamas discover their little ones sleep better on their tummies? I never gave my infants a choice... and at a month old, he's most likely not rolling over on his own... try a sleep positioner to keep him snuggled in and on his back. I know some sleep positioners have been recalled and such, but I had a mesh, breathable one for my sons and never had an issue.

yes, it supposed to be bad the safest way for them to sleep is on their side! now giving this I did let my son sleep on his stomach during nap, though he really never slept in his bed.. he loved his swing or i held him.

At 2 months my Dr told me to have my lil man sleep on his tummy because his head had a flat spot but she said it was only because he is very strong and could already hold his head up really well and roll tummy to back. I was very paranoid at first and woke up multiple times to check him but the older her gets the better i feel about it. He is 4 months now.
