Hey, congratulations on your new born. The baby will outgrow this phase of “newborn curl” in a month or so. Just ensure when he rolls over, there isn’t anything obstructing his breathing (side of the bassinet) etc, and reposition him to flat once more. Staying flat on their back is key! Keep him swaddled and the blanket swaddles worked better for us in the first month. I created a wider base with the swaddle so our baby couldn’t roll over as much. I even like rolled up the same tips of the swaddle so there was almost a bit bulge on the sides so the baby couldn’t roll over. Almost like an anchor. I couldn’t explain this well but let do let me know if I did a bad job explaining this part. I noticed the swaddles that naturally kept their hands up, didn’t work for us, that almost made the rolling worse. (SwaddleMe brand is what I’m referring to here) Use a arms in swaddle, comfortably against their sides. Creating that womb environment will help them from the moro reflex and all the cute little things they do in their sleep like flailing :) They have the Velcro swaddles too that help. Hopefully he can’t get out of these. Ensure the bassinet is sturdy and flat, not those rocking ones or the ones that fold out cause those always tip over one way ever so slightly if the baby isn’t perfectly centered, which is not going to happen. When they start to roll over naturally, which is couple months do not restrict with swaddling. It’s time to transition out at that point. Hope this helps!! YOU GOT THIS!!!
