9 wk old baby rolled off of our couch onto the carpet about 16 in, cried for a few seconds while i held him and went back to sleep. what should i do?

Love him: The fact that he cried right away when he struck the carpet means that he did NOT lose consciousness. That is THE most important prognostic sign after head trauma. In general kids at 9 weeks don't roll over yet but if you want to keep him in bed with you place him between you and your partner. That way he can't roll out.
