Barely 3 months and rolling onto tummy to sleep

[SaraEmily]

As of last night, my almost 3 month old rolls straight onto her tummy when I put her in her crib. I put her back on her back, but she rolls within a few minutes. Should I just leave her to sleep how she wants? I know that once they're rolling it's supposed to be okay, but this soon? I'm terrified.

My dd did the same thing around that age. I stayed awake the first few nights scared to death about it. She was fine, she still rolls on her tummy as soon as I put her in her crib. That girl refuses to sleep on her back.

I would probably just let her be.

My sister started rolling while still in the hospital. The nurses yelled at our mom about it, since they thought she was doing it. She should be fine; babies have a tendency to do what they want even if it worries us silly.

It can definitely be scary but once they start consistently doing it, there's not much you can do!
