3 Month Old Only Sleeps Well on Tummy

Let me begin by saying that I'm well aware of all the reasons my son should sleep on his back. The last thing I want to do is resort to him sleeping on his tummy. However, despite all of my efforts (swaddling, bedtime routines, pacifier, feeding, earlier bedtimes, soothing, reading the Weissbluth book, etc...) he is waking almost every hour during the night, simply because he's a light sleeper-- not necessarily because he is hungry.

What to do....Nervous Mother...son Rolling over to Sleep on Belly

I'm sure everyone goes through this, however I'm not sure if I'm just being a nervous new Mom, or if I should be concerned. My son is 5 1/2 months old and has just starting rolling over.

When I asked her pediatrician about my concern about her sleeping on her belly, I was told to flip her back over whenever we see her like this because, although she is already almost 9 months old, she still does run the risk of SIDS. The problem I have with this advice is that when I go in to flip her before I retire to bed at about 11 (she goes to be around 9), it wakes her up and she becomes upset...
