Hi,
My daughter hates sleeping on her back and usually flips over to her tummy within 20 of putting her down. During the night she creeps herself to the top of the crib and starts to fuss and squirm. I move her back down put the pacifier in and within another 2 hrs she's back to where she was. Has anyone else experienced this? What can I do to help her sleep better. She only sleeps for 5 hrs and then she's up again for her next bottle. She's has never slept through the night. I thought that putting her on her back would be better but she wont stay that way. Any advice is appreciated
How do I stop my 6 month old from creeping to the top of crib during the night?
Yes, my son is like this. At 6 months though, you may want to ask yourself if she is having a bottle because she's hungry or has she gotten into a habit of taking it after 5 hours? The wedges don't work for me, my son just rolls over them. I know it's not for everybody but I put a small toy snake in with him that he likes to "spoon" (it's not made out of fluffy material). And he loves to sleep on his tummy. After a month of rolling him back over, I gave up the fight. Good luck!
Reply:Once she can go back and forth easily, it's fine if she flips herself onto her tummy. Just don't give her a pillow or comforter - just a thin blanket.
Reply:my baby does this,just try and put them as far to the bottom as possible and on her front anyway (my son preferes tummy),and hopefully it wont happen so often.my son also sleeps through now after i took water to bed in a bottle to tell him "bar is shut"....they need to learn there is nothing to wake up for by doing this,so try it and let me know ok?..x
Reply:Have you ever tryed putting her in one of the wedge thing that you use to keep them from rolling over when they are really small not sure of name the thing to help prevent SIDS it may work just a suggestion
Reply:i had the same issue and there is nothing you can do.. i got out the thing you put around them so they cant roll and she would just put her leg on top of it. she still squirmed out and up to the top again...
all i did was place her at the foot of the crib almost that way she has longer to go to reach the top.
she don't wake up at night anymore since i have started feeding her baby food... i guess she gets enough in the day time that she is not hungry at night.. she will go to sleep around 9 till 7.. no matter what she is up at 7.
Reply:get rid of the pacifier, seriously. she may just be hungry..
