Regarding how to raise a baby, it seems that it always arouses different ideas between young people and the older generation, and they even frequently quarrel because of the stalemate. One typical example is the baby's sleeping position and head shape. I believe many women have experienced it...
For example, elderly people taking care of their children especially like to sleep on their newborns with flat heads. They think this is an old tradition, and flat heads look good. , nothing bad. But today's young parents categorically refuse precisely because of their own experiences.
But why are there so many flatheads in China now?
In real life, even if many parents of new students disagree with this matter, they still can't control the older generation. This has been a saying that has been circulated for so many years, so there are still so many flat heads in China. Now, if you don’t want to harm your children and don’t suffer their complaints in the future, the sooner you make corrections, the better.
The biggest reason not to let your baby sleep with a flat head: affects appearance. With the continuous development of the new society, everyone will find that the more inter-generational communication there is, the greater the generation gap, especially in terms of aesthetics, the older generation and the younger generation are more different.
If you are influenced by the elderly, once your children grow up, they will see other people with round heads, whether boys or girls, especially with shawl hair or ponytails. If you look in the mirror, you will find that round heads are so beautiful, while flat heads are extremely ugly. It’s easy to lower your appearance.
In addition, there is no relevant evidence to support the fact that sleeping with children with a flat head will reduce intelligence and have incorrect head shape. As mentioned above, the most important thing is the person's aesthetic feeling, and there is no other impact.
How to prevent your child from sleeping with a flat head? You can do this:
Try to make the newborn lie on his back: According to the growth characteristics of the newborn, especially before 6 months, the skull is relatively soft, which may cause certain changes due to sleeping position. .
In order to prevent the newborn from sleeping with a flat head at this stage, parents need to pay attention. When the newborn falls asleep, should actively help the baby change his sleeping position. should avoid keeping the head in one position, otherwise a certain position will be compressed. If it is too large, it will be detrimental to the final shape of the baby’s head.
During this period, you may wish to let the baby sleep on his stomach, and you can also hold the baby more while playing. At the same time, prevent the baby from sleeping on his stomach for a long time, which will affect breathing and even increase the probability of sudden death.
Attract the baby to keep looking up: In order to prevent the baby's head from being too powerful and putting excessive pressure on the head, parents can often attract the baby's attention, such as using their own voice and his/her favorite toys, so that If they move their heads more, they can also avoid sleeping with a flat head.
As for the shaped pillow, there is no need to buy it. It is just an IQ tax. Parents should avoid this pitfall.
