Should Cui Yutao\’s one-year-old baby be corrected when he sleeps on his stomach? More than 90% of parents are making mistakes…

Many parents are worried when they see that their babies like to sleep on their stomachs. They are either worried about oppressing the heart or wondering whether the baby is sick. Yes, sleeping on your stomach does have fatal risks, but as long as parents pay attention to avoid these problems, the chance of danger can be greatly reduced. First of all, parents should understand the reason why babies sleep on their stomachs. Reason 1: Seeking a sense of security while sleeping on their stomachs is related to the baby staying in a curled-up position for a long time in the mother’s belly. Changes in the environment after birth will make the baby feel strange and scared, so Involuntarily sleeping on the stomach to seek security. When your baby is relaxed physically and mentally, he will fall asleep better. Reason 2: Breathing problems: Sleeping on your stomach can help enlarge the nasopharyngeal airway and relieve breathing problems. Therefore, when babies have nasal congestion, they will choose to sleep on their stomachs to relieve the discomfort. What needs to be noted here is that once the baby has symptoms such as nasal congestion, snoring, restless sleep, turning over from time to time, etc., he must be checked to see if he has adenoid hypertrophy. Reason 3: Habit problem: Babies like to sleep on their stomachs is actually a habit problem, because sleeping on their stomachs has a sense of the ground with their limbs, which can relieve the baby\’s nervousness and make the baby feel more at ease. What are the pros and cons of sleeping on your baby\’s stomach? Disadvantages: For small babies, \”sleeping on their stomachs\” is one of the main causes of sudden infant death, so babies should avoid sleeping on their stomachs to avoid accidents. However, most babies between 4 and 7 months old have learned to turn over. When lying prone on one side, they will instinctively expose their mouth and nose to breathe. At this time, as long as parents constantly observe and take good care of the baby, they can prevent the baby from being stuffy in the bedding and ensure smooth breathing. After about 6 months, parents no longer need to help the baby turn over frequently. Benefits: Sleeping on your stomach helps the growth and development of the chest and lungs. However, be sure to expose the mouth and nose to allow the baby to breathe comfortably. Which sleeping position is the healthiest? Having said that, let’s take a look at the pros and cons of sleeping on your back and side. Sleeping on the baby\’s back not only reduces the risk of suffocation, but also \”liberates\” the limbs for easier movement. It also allows parents to directly observe the expressions on the baby\’s face and provide timely care. Of course, there are also disadvantages, that is, the milk stains from overflowing milk can easily flow into the ears and cause infection, aspiration can lead to aspiration pneumonia, etc. Therefore, it is not recommended for babies who are prone to overflowing milk, vomiting, and respiratory discomfort to sleep on their backs. For babies who are good in all aspects, it is most correct to sleep on their back. The advantage of sleeping on the side is that the baby feels safer because it feels like sleeping in the mother\’s belly. At the same time, it can also prevent aspiration caused by spitting up and overflowing milk, and facilitates the smooth entry of food from the stomach into the intestines. The disadvantage is that it is easy to make the face look small and tilt the head while sleeping. Therefore, the correct sleeping position is to sleep on your side alternately for about 3 to 4 hours. In fact, children, like adults, like to find a comfortable position to sleep, but it is difficult for children to turn over on their own, especially those under 6 years old. Once a baby turns over and lies on the bed, it is unable to get up on its own and cannot make a sound to attract the attention of adults, so it is very easy to cause death by suffocation. Therefore, no matter whether the child is lying on his back, stomach or side, parents should pay attention to supervise the child to ensure smooth breathing and prevent suffocation. In addition, I would also like to suggest that everyone, the bed and mattress for the baby should not be too soft, and pillows, quilts and stuffed toys should not be placed under the body, and the baby should not sleep between parents to prevent adults from squeezing the baby when they are asleep, thus preventing dangerous injuries. occur.
