: It's recommended back to sleep, but I put my child on her tummy.

I always put my babies on their tummy to sleep also even though it is recommended to lie them on their backs. It is not proven that sleeping on their tummy really causes SIDS. I find they sleep better on their tummy and don't get startled with their own hands. Also if they are sick or drooling, they have a higher chance of choking on it on their backs.
