Our beautiful 5 day old is determined to sleep on his side. He is swaddled every sleep and put in his bed on his back but he will always roll to his right. We have tried switching cot location and where/which way we place him in bed but it ends in the same result. I have noticed he was doing this a little bit in the first few days but now he has gone so far to almost be asleep on his cheek each cheek

Is your baby in a cot or a bassinet?
When you say to his side, are you referring to turning his face to side, or completely rolling his whole body to side?
Are you using a light muslin or cotton wrap for swaddling or a swaddle suit (arms in)?
Have you started tummy time yet?
Have you had a visit with Maternal, Child Health Nurse yet?
