Is it good for Cui Yutao\’s one-year-old baby to sleep on his stomach? Does it need correction?

Question 1: My baby is one year and three months old and likes to sleep on his stomach. Is this good for the child’s health? Could the baby sleeping on his stomach cause his stomach ache? Dr. Wang Yanli answered: Sleeping on the stomach itself is not bad for the child. It is a matter of personal habits. The key is that the caregiver must watch carefully and not cover the nose with pillows or quilts to avoid suffocation. However, the head of a child who is one year and three months old can twist freely and generally does not suffocate. However, for babies who cannot turn over or cannot take care of themselves, it is best not to sleep on their stomachs to avoid suffocation, or parents should watch over them. ,this point is very important. Also, sleeping on the stomach has little to do with stomach pain. If the child really has stomach pain, he will express it by crying. However, if you eat too much and your stomach is full, you will fall asleep on your stomach, because if you eat too much and sleep lying down, your stomach will be pressed and uncomfortable, so it will be more comfortable if you lie on your stomach. Question 2: My baby is 2 years old and 6 months old. Recently, he has a bad taste in his mouth and cannot eat. I don’t know why. How can I correct this situation? Are there any food-grade ones that can regulate the gastrointestinal tract through chewing? Dr. Cui Lixia’s answer: If your diet and bowel movements are normal, it is not recommended to take medicine. Pay attention to brushing your teeth, maintaining oral hygiene, and eating less at night. There is no food-grade medicine that can regulate the gastrointestinal function through chewing. You can take a look at the compound chicken gizzard for children. This can be chewed, but it is also medicine. Take one tablet at a time, three times a day. Question 3: My baby is 11 months old. Recently, I discovered that his lumbar spine protrudes when he is sitting. You can feel each joint. It is not obvious when he stands up. The baby has no discomfort. He can now stand while holding on to things. If you can stand up for a second or two without holding anything, could it be that you sat down too early or for too long, causing spinal injury? Or is there a congenital problem? Dr. Luo Zhen answered: There is nothing wrong with this situation. Don’t worry. It is a physiological phenomenon. As the baby grows and develops, fat and muscle increase, and the spine will become less obvious.
