Rolling back to tummy but face plants

LO is 5.5 months actual and 4 months adjusted. He just rolled for the first time last week and has rolled a couple more times after that. He can roll back to tummy but has poor neck control and is face planting a couple of minutes later. And then he seems to just lie there struggling, not knowing what to do or how to roll back. Both times this happened I was right next to him but he didn't scream or cry or make any sound while he struggled.

I'm scared that this will happen at night and he won't cry to alert me. Has this happened to anyone else? I thought babies only roll onto their tummy when they have the truncal strength and neck control to hold themselves up or roll back to their back lying position, clearly I was wrong.
