While you are awake and around and checking every so often? I’m conflicted but this reflux baby is so much happier on stomach. At night I’m too afraid to..

For the record, the ABC recommendation for sleep is fairly recent advice and only in America. Other countries will include sleeping on stomach in their recommendations

Once they can lift their head and move it from side to side they can sleep on their stomach safely.

I wouldn't at night until the baby can turn over on their own.

I had a colic baby. it was either belly to sleep or no sleep....... I made sure he has a pacifier in his mouth, no blanket or anything in his bed at all and I was right there.

I was always scared to put on the stomach, till I had a baby that would not sleep! She shreiked through the night. Till I was just so exhausted, I turned her on her stomach and she fell asleep and slept for hours! Since then she slept very well only on her stomach.
