6 month old sleeping on front?

[JoAnn&Aimee]

I woke up this morning to find that Aimee was asleep on her front. I always put her down on her back and when she rolls over she usually screams until I roll her back. I had went to the toilet about 5am, she was sleeping on her back and woke up to find Aimee on her front at 5.45am so she wasn't lying like that for long. It gave me a fright to see her lying that way, can it harm her? I would never let her sleep on her front, she done it while I was asleep so I never knew!

Dylan's recently just started sling on his front. I was a bit panicked at first and checking on him every minute(!) but he is just fine. Sometimes though i feel the need to turn his head a bit more to the side coz he is sometimes practically face down and that frightened me

Just must be their comfy position though

Finlay has slept on his front from day one

I wouldn't worry about it - if she's rolled herself there then she can roll herself back
