As every mother can agree we love when our children hit milestones.  Isabel has been rolling on her side for a couple weeks now and yesterday she made it all the way on to her belly.  I was so excited because it seems like once they start rolling over, everything else starts happening.  Sitting up, crawling, standing, walking along furniture, walking independently and of course talking. 

Well, I put Isabel down for her nap and she managed to roll herself over (she sleeps in the pack-n-play in my room since Lil Tony still needs the crib).  I put her to sleep and went in to the living room.  A few minutes later she was crying.  Now normally I wouldn’t be concerned when she cried but since she started rolling over I am a little worried.  She seems to be able to roll on her belly but not roll back over.  So I went to check on her and she was on her belly and she had spit up so she had her face all in it.  I felt so bad.  She can lift her head but not sure she realizes yet that she needs to tilt it to the side.  So I cleaned her up and laid her back down, I stayed in the room until she calmed down and started to doze off.  I have one of those cool flow back sleepers.  Lil Tony never needed it and so far I hadn’t used it with Isabel, however I think I need to.  So I dug it out of the storage tote and went back in my room to put Isabel in it and she had fallen asleep.  I will wait to try it out tonight, I just hope she hasn’t gotten too big for it. 

I worry about SIDS, I usually sleep pretty light but I just don’t need to take any chances.  Hopefully the back sleeper will work.
