Do you really understand the influence of baby's sleeping position on head shape?

In fact, the formation of baby's head shape has a lot to do with sleeping position. At the stage when the baby's skull is not completely ossified, the soft skull is very susceptible to sleeping position. So, what is the effect of various sleeping positions on the baby's head shape? How to help your baby shape the perfect head shape through sleeping position adjustment? Next, I will reveal the secrets for everyone. Sleeping position on your back: flat head

When a baby stays in a supine position for a long time, the back of his head may become flat, which is what we call "flat head". The pressure of the mattress will make the baby's head not get enough support, resulting in a flat head. Sleeping posture on the side: oblique head disease < P > Lying on the side helps to reduce head pressure and prevent flat head disease. However, if the baby is only used to sleeping on one side, it will lead to head deviation and form "tilt head disease". In order to perfect the baby's head shape, remember to change the sleeping position for the baby regularly! Lying prone: Not recommended < P > Although lying prone can provide a better view, it is not recommended because it will increase the risk of sudden infant death syndrome. Change your sleeping position frequently

Let your baby experience the fun of lying on your back, lying on your side or even lying on your stomach in turn. This will not only prevent head problems, but also let your baby experience different sleeping feelings! Use a special pillow or mattress

Choose a pillow or mattress that can provide proper support and balance to help your baby's head get enough support. Exercise more

To prevent the baby from staying in the same sleeping position for a long time, encourage the baby to exercise more, which is helpful to shape the perfect head shape. Professional consultation

If your baby has a head problem, don't worry, seek the advice of a pediatrician or a pediatric head orthopedic expert! They will give more specific suggestions and treatment plans.
