I'd definitely recommend sticking with the SIDS guidelines for sleeping. There has been a lot of research into this and sleeping on the back is definitely the safest place for little babies.

Many of us probably slept on our tummies as babies and we are just fine (including myself!) but I guess now that this information is out there, it pays to listen to it IYKWIM?

Jacob's head is a little bit flat at the back, although that runs in the family a little bit LOL. But having said that, his head was actually flatter when he was sleeping on his back all the time. It didn't bother me at all as I knew he was safe that way and that it would come right in time (which it definitely has apart from the little bit of hereditary flatness LOL!). Plus it actually looked quite cute!

He now sleeps all over the place........and his noggin' is just fine!
