Should I Move Baby If They Look Uncomfortable?

Babies tend to find comfort in some pretty awkward looking positions!  Knees tucked under themselves with their booty up in the air?  Normal! All scrunched up into the corner of the crib?  Normal!

‍

In general, if your baby is snoozing away then you should be good to leave them be!  Be sure they are in a safe sleep space free of blankets, positioners, stuffed animals, etc and that their nose and mouth are not covered. If they are uncomfortable, they’ll most likely wake up and rearrange themselves or cry out for help.

If you do have to help them out of an unsafe position or they are upset in the position they are in, then go in quietly, get them situated and leave quickly!
