Rolling over

My little girl will be 10 weeks old tomorrow and she is already rolling over onto her belly. I know they say this young its just on accident, but every single time she sleeps I put her down on her back and she wakes up on her belly. When she's awake she rolls to her side normally, and tries so hard to get to her belly. Is this normal at this age?

My girl did that few times too. My ped said as long as she's moving herself its fine. She kept rolling to her side since the day she was born lol

My bub started rolling over at 6 days. Yes I Said days. Lol. He's stopped doing it at about 8weeks and hes now 12 weeks. Some babies are just early. She's obviously just a bit clever. ;)

I understand your concern! My daughter is 12 weeks old now and at least a couple of weeks ago started scooting. We'd put her in the bassinet facing North, and come back 10 minutes later to find her completely facing South. We have older kids in the house, so we ask them if they had moved her, but they hadn't. She was simply just kicking and pushing with her arms enough to rotate. The rolling over started at around 8 weeks. We keep her swaddled most of the time though, so I sure we've missed some of it.
