Restless Sleeper

Like me, after getting in bed Tyler tosses and turns until he finds that one sweet position to drift off to dreamland and then later he adjusts all over again. Even though we put Tyler to sleep on his back (like you are supposed to), he almost immediately flops over on to his stomach. As you can see above he also wiggles and rotates to wherever he pleases. Apparently it's okay for babies to sleep on their stomachs once they are able to roll over from tummy to back and back to tummy on their own. I stopped swaddling Tyler recently because most of the time he was squirming his arms out of the swaddle anyway and had started rolling over onto his stomach while swaddled. I have a feeling it won't be long until we have to lower the crib mattress because tonight after I put Tyler to bed I watched as he grabbed the crib rails and tried to use them to maneuver about the crib and he almost looked like he was trying to pull himself up.
