rolling over - Infant Care (up to 18 months old) Message Board

HI Good news! DD rolled over from back to front. I was really concerned that she wouldn't roll over because DS rolled front to back 1st and she hates her tummy time. When she does roll over she gets to her tummy then gets really mad. We think it's funny because she loves to do it but hates the result.

Which way did your babies roll first and did the opposite way follow soon? I want her to be able to roll back so we don't have to "fix it" in the middle of the night when she gets stuck on her tummy.

DD rolled from back to tummy at about 4 months. She is almost 7 months now and still can't roll from tummy to back, but she doesn't hate being on her tummy like she did when she first started rolling to her tummy.

Mine is 3.5 months old and has been sleeping on her stomach - as a result, she has been rolling from her stomach to her back and waking up mad also. But she hasn't figured out how to get from her back - back to her stomach! Poor kid.
