Re: fab causing problems at night

[Guest guest]

Ok, here's my two-cents. Is the mattress too soft? During the day, is she

flipping over while in bed or on the floor. I'm guessing it's easier for her to

flip on a harder surface that she can't " sink " into. KWIM?

She gets on her belly and gets stuck and cries. I find myself getting

up 10 or 15 times a night to turn her back over. She flips on the floor

all day long but for some reason she gets stuck at night. Can anyone

give me any suggestions. I need sleep!!!!

Dorothy-

Welcome to the group. One of the things I did was prop/barricade my

son so that he could not roll over. He was and still is a side sleeper-

until he was able to balance the fab himself(which he does now). We

piled up pillows/towels to block him and give him a prop to rest the

fab on. My other thought is that she may have figured out that if she

rolls over-she gets momma to respond-she is at that age where she

would start figuring out cause and effect-especially since she has no

problem rolling around during the day!

Is it that her feet are getting stuck in the crib slats? Or is she

actually in a bed? I know also sometimes Livi gets tangled in her

blankets... maybe just dress her warm without a blanket?

Hope you find a good solution and get some sleep!

Dorthy, are you still having trouble with her sleeping or did you figure

something out?
