Sleeping on Knees
Hi All
My little one is 9 months old and when put down for a nap or to go to sleep she is always rolling to her front, tucking her knees under her and sleeping on the side of her face. When I see this I try and correct her but wondering if I should be correcting her? Is this a normal thing? Should I just leave her be? I ask as she keeps ending up with red knees and a red patch on her face from the pressure
Much love x x

My son did that I just left him
My daughter is almost 2 and still does this. I heard a saying the other day which was “you can’t make a happy baby happier” and I love it. If she’s uncomfortable she will move. My daughter also gets little finger marks on her face as she sleeps on her hands too.

Yeah, mine still does that at 17 months. A lot of them seem to. I think it's a comfort thing. It's like a fetal position and the pressure on their face / front side is comforting, like in the womb.
