It's interesting this, luckily for me I don't have a baby who prefers to sleep on their tummy.
I do lay T on her side to get her to nod off at night because that's the most effective way to have her drop off. Plus I'm paranoid about the vomiting and her choking after she's put down after a feed.
Little miss - I've read before that babies with severe reflux may sleep better on their tummies but it says discuss with your doc which you obvs have

When we were in the hospital, the nurse rolled up a towel and laid it in the bassinet in a U shape and put a sheet over it to make a sort of hole for T to sleep in, she often buried her face into the side of the towel and it made the crib snuggly for her but I did worry about it and SIDS.
I have replicated it at home as it stops her rolling in the crib as we have a cushion elevating the mattress.
I'm pretty sure you aren't meant to do that as per the official advice but then why would they do it at hospital?
