Sleeping on side

My baby keeps going to sleep on his side, he reaches his arm over (I think it’s his way of soothing himself to sleep) but he’s only just started doing this the past week. If I roll him onto his back the majority of the time he will roll back onto his side. Is this dangerous and does anyone else’s LO do this?

@Betty this was my lo this morning. My husband and I laughed for a while before picking him up

Our little girl always ends up on her side or tummy no matter which way I put her down. Scares me, but she can roll confidently both ways so I know she can move herself back if needs be

Mine does the same and has done since birth really. Health visitor told me as long as you put them to sleep on their back you’re fine because if they got themselves there then they can get back. Although I don’t think that’s completely true because up until today my baby could only roll on her front and couldn’t roll back 😂
