I'm losing my mind

Thanks for your really kind offer Spockey. We'll be in Oz in a couple of weeks so will get it then.

We put him into a grobag last night and it stopped the rolling but he still woke three times and was ready to party at 4.30am!
 
Aussiegal,

We have a 5 month old with exactly the same problem. I bought a 'sleep positioner' from Eugene, which does the same thing as pillows or rolled-up towels, but feels safer. It stops him from rolling but he often wakes because he's trying to roll in his sleep and the frustration of not being able to, wakes him !

It has improved things a little for us, so might be worth a go.

Babies who are fond of sleeping on their tummies usually have breathing problems as a cause.
Try to check if he snores, breathes through the mouth, falks a lot.. He could be rolling over to overcome a blocked airway.
My little one used to be like yours. And my ped finished off my problem with simple nose sprays!
