Is it safe for my 5.5-month-old baby to sleep on his tummy?

Question

My 5.5 month old son has started rolling over at night and sleeping on his tummy. Should I be concerned about this or is it safe to let him sleep that way? Should I try to roll him back onto his back?

Answer 1

My 1 month old baby sleeps on tummy since he was born. No issues. He loves sleeping like that.

Same goes with my baby. He is now 87days and love to sleeps on tummy. It will keep him sleep silently & longer time.

Answer 2

The advice given by health professionals is to let them sleep on their backs. Whenever they are able to turn on their tummy, they can be allowed to sleep that way. The issue is them being able to move or avoid suffocation. 

Answer 3

When asleep you should put baby on back at first , if baby rolls over it is cosnsidered safe.
