| (Picture taken after assessing the situation) |
It was one of those usual morning, I had fed him earlier and it's getting bright.. So I just woke up naturally - to a shocking sight! He was on his tummy! I panicked and straight away went to assess, see his condition and guess what? It was a perfect tummy time. He was on his tummy, both hands tucked neatly under his chest, giggling and smiling at me, so proudly.. MasyaaAllah tabrakAllah. Yes we have been practicing rolling but always under our supervision.
I wanted to scream but tried not to. I don't wanna give him unnecessary negative vibe ; scared, worried, while in fact he was fine on his own. But of course at his age, he shouldn't be rolling on his own since he is still tuning his skill, especially he hasn't mastered on how to turn back to his back. It's not safe to be on his tummy all the way sleeping.
So I troubleshoot what could have been "caused" him to roll on his own (which I see as an achievement, though). I think it's because after I fed him earlier in the morning, I have removed his swaddle and he is only in his sleeping bag with his arms out. And his mattress was a littleeee inclined to the side. I guess these has provided enough momentum for him to roll on his own.. Why he is on the mattress? Cause he hates the cot and he there's no enough space for us three to sleep together.. So for the time being lets us just sleep on the floor until he's strong enough to kick us from the bed.
Oh god if only he knows how freaked out I was..
