Rolling = Sleep Regression, huh?

Why didn't anyone warn me about this?!?!  Luke has been successfully rolling over for about a week and a half now and has been waking me up every 2-3 hours each night for the past week.  What gives?  I feel like we're back to square one with sleep.  Even his naps are sucky, he fights so hard to go down and just when I think he's out.....time to roll over and cry!  aaaaah!  Last night was the worst night we've had in a loooong time.  I won't go into details but someone please reassure me that this too will pass.  I'm getting kind of grumpy from it all, shocker I know.  His main issue is he rolls over like a pro onto his stomach, then puts his head face down into the mattress, then cries.  Just turn your head to side kiddo and it would all be okay OR...wait for it...roll back over!  Okay, well I do feel a bit better after my rolling rant.  Time to start the bedtime routine and hopefully get a nice nights sleep.

What happened to that little thing that kept him from rolling over that was in the crib? Yes, this too shall pass. Fill the crib with all his stuff animals and he won't have any room to go anywhere!!!

Practicing in his sleep, no doubt. Dreaming of crawling and pulling himself up and walking and running ...
