Infant rolling over in bed
Now that Jackson is an experienced roller he has started rolling over in the middle of the night. He can't get himself from front to back so he ends up sleeping on his stomach. The scary part is that three times last night I woke up to find him on his stomach with his face straight down in the mattress. He's too tired to turn his head so he can breathe. I had a hard time sleeping because every time I dozed off he'd roll over. He's only 4-months-old and I worry a lot about SIDS. How do you handle your infant rolling over at night?

Try a sleep positioner. You can get them anywhere (about $10 at Walmart). It is a cushion that goes on each side of the baby to keep them from rolling over. Abbi started rolling over at 2 months, she's just 3 months now, so I had to learn quick.
Ask your peditrician :-)
Our dd is almost 4 months old and started rolling over from back to front about 3 wks ago. I haven't seen her roll over in bed yet.
