Here’s my daughter sleeping in her crib at 8 months old.
And here she is at 14 mths old. Still enjoys sleeping “folded in half”, as we refer to it.
Earlier this week when my husband went in to kiss the kids goodnight, he found her at 3 and 1/2 sleeping in the very same position she favored as an infant.
I would think with age this position would grow more impossible and uncomfortable.

This is awesome. Love it!
Jack still sleeps *just* like he did as a baby – on his tummy with his legs tucked under him – Indian style. I love it – so babyish!
LOL! That is funny and it so does not look comfortable. It is crazy the positions they can contort themselves into!
aaaah! that’s awesome!
My legs are falling asleep just looking at her in that pretzel like position!
Happy WW!
Oh my gosh, I couldn’t do that even if I tried!!!
OH MY! That doesn’t look comfy at all! Too cute!
that is hilarious – and looks painful! I wish I could still sleep like a pretzel!
She IS good at folding herself in half.
Its so funny how kids do that!
How funny!! I wonder how long it can continue…
I could never ever sleep like that.
That is the silliest position!
Maybe she has a future as a gymnast, being able to bend that way?
Happy WW!
That is really cute!
That is hilarious. I can’t even bend over to touch my toes, let alone fall asleep like that. Ahhh, to the days of flexibility!
Oh my! I don’t see how she sleeps like that! How cute!!!
I love it! My son used to sleep in the same position.
LOL They say that babies sleep the way they were in the womb, so she must have had her feet near her head at some point
My daughter was the same way – she loves to have her feet up on something higher than her head to sleep….so funny!
That is crazy! Flexible isn’t she? How cute.
Adorable! Wish I could get myself in that position these days….
It amazes me how flexible they are when they’re little! She looks like she’s born to be a gymnast!
