2011/08/24th Wednesday, Ge You left a message on Coke's mother's blog, asking her about her sleeping methods and precautions. Looking through the photo album photos on the hard disk, I found that Coke's mother is really a strange mother, who likes to take pictures of her children sleeping. Cocoa and Lele have been sleeping on their babies since childhood, so coke mother is very supportive of sleeping on their babies! (The brother and sister are so tired that they can even fall asleep in the nursery of Shen Han's giant egg ~ Photographed on 2011/08/13) On August 24th, I received a question from Debbie Ge You: Hello, Coke Mom: I saw your blog recently and thought you were a blogger. Excuse me, what should I pay attention to, how to let my baby sleep on his stomach, because I am worried about my baby's suffocation but want to help him take care of his head shape. Can you teach me? Thank you (filmed on 20111/06 ~ Lele was born 20 days ago ~) (Lele's sleepy brother can turn his face at will ~ filmed on 201/25 ~ Lele 65438) As soon as the baby was born, eating, drinking and sleeping became an important topic. Of course, many careful mothers know a lot of parenting books during pregnancy. But even with more books and online teaching rules, novice mommy has no actual combat experience, and still only knows that theory has no practical experience. Although parenting books or friends and relatives always give a lot of advice, novice parents still have to explore the process of taking care of their babies themselves. When a baby is born, he sleeps most of the time except for drinking milk. Sleeping posture is a big problem. So first of all, let's talk about whether the baby should sleep on his back, side or stomach. Whether it is purely for the beauty of the head or for the sake of health and safety, sleeping posture does have a great influence. (Sister Coco, who slept since childhood ~) Every time I take Coco Lele out, people often ask Mama Coke: Are they both asleep? And then praised their heads for their beautiful shapes. I remember when I was waiting in line for dinner at the door of a hot pot restaurant, Asan, who was going to be a mother-in-law, chatted with Coke's mother and asked Coke's mother what she thought of the baby lying down. Because Assange said that my daughter-in-law said that the children would take care of me in the future, I still want to lie down or sleep on my back for my grandson! Of course, Coke's mother affirmed Asan's daughter-in-law for the first time and was willing to give her child to the old man, indicating that she trusted the old man's ability to take care of the child. Coke mom shared the benefits of children sleeping on their backs, and then told Ah San that whether to sleep on their grandchildren's backs or on their backs actually requires communication with their daughter-in-law and her consent. After hearing this, Ah San agreed very much. Helping people take care of their children is a great responsibility, and there can be no mistakes! ) (Lele ~ who fell asleep after coming home from the hospital was taken on 201122 ~ 6 days after Lele was born) (Lele ~ who slept well was hungry on time ~ was taken on 20 1 10/27. It's Coke's mother-in-law. She told Coke's mother to hold the baby upside down, holding her neck in one hand and her stomach in the other, and then gently put it on the sleeping pillow. At first, the baby can't turn his neck by himself. Every once in a while, the mother (caregiver) will help the baby turn his head. Soon, three days later, the cocoa sleeping on the stomach can change sides by itself. (Lele will even open it by herself the next day! ) But frankly, is it really comfortable to see the child's neck twisted like this at first, nearly 180 degrees? ! Coke mom's heart is full of doubts! But in fact, don't worry (novice mothers are really nervous and worried), the baby's bones are still very soft and won't be broken and sprained because of sleeping. (Be sure to sleep in the crib, so as not to be accidentally crushed by adults or suffocated by quilts ~) (The picture on the far right is Lele's brother ~) "Precautions for sleeping" to take care of the sleeping baby, the most worrying thing is suffocation. Because there are indeed incidents of suffocation due to sleep. Even pediatricians don't necessarily encourage children to sleep. After all, no one wants to bear such a mistake. Sleeping on your stomach will lead to suffocation because you don't pay attention to the softness and hardness of the mattress or pillow and cover your nose and mouth. Mom Coke bought a "flat" memory pillow for Coco Lele, and it didn't smell uncomfortable with latex. There are many air holes on the pillow, so you can safely put your baby on the pillow to sleep. If you don't want to sleep a pillow for your child, then the mattress must have air holes! If the mattress is too soft, it will make the baby's nose sink and affect breathing. Because the sleeping pillow is thin and big, Cocoa Lele is like hugging the earth, so that they can sleep peacefully until dawn after the full moon. Of course, a mother still has to get up in the middle of the night to nurse! However, because the baby is prone to drooling and sweating, you can buy more pillowcases, and you must change them every day to avoid rash or allergies. The pillowcase should also pay attention to whether it breathes and absorbs water to prevent the baby from accidentally spitting milk and covering his mouth and nose. (Coco sleeps on his parents' mattress ~ Be careful to cover his nose ~) "The Benefits of Sleeping" Cola Mom believes that all the habits of the baby must be developed from birth! Of course, including sleeping! Coke mom found that babies who sleep on their stomachs feel more secure, sleep soundly easily and are not easy to wake up and cry. Therefore, there is absolutely no need to wrap the child's hands and feet with a towel, which will affect the freedom of movement of the limbs, and even more afraid of unconsciously scratching his face while sleeping. When the baby sleeps for a long time, the baby's physical and mental state will naturally improve, and the mother (caregiver) can take good care of it, so it is easy to grasp the time of waking up and breastfeeding. Sleeping on your stomach can also prevent vomiting and suffocation caused by food flowing back to the esophagus and mouth, and eliminate flatulence. Sleeping on your stomach can also let your baby blow his head and chest, exercise large muscle groups such as neck, chest, back and limbs, and promote the development of your baby's muscle tension. Some mothers are still worried about the danger of the baby lying down. Coke suggests that children can sleep on their back or side, and then practice lying flat after waking up, so as to exercise the big muscles of the baby's neck and back and learn to look up. Baby should pay special attention when sleeping: whether the baby breathes smoothly, and try not to sleep when sick. When sleeping on your stomach, pay attention to whether there are big buttons or nipples in the center of the front of your baby's clothes to avoid discomfort caused by oppression when sleeping on your stomach. (Coco is used to sleeping ~ Even when she arrived at 1.7ys, she still slept with a pacifier ~ It was taken in September 2007/10 ~ Grandparents' Taipei home) The conclusion of sleeping began to train the baby to sleep, and the baby could sleep naturally. But when babies can turn over, they will choose their own comfortable position to sleep. Often sleep on your stomach, on your side, on your back and so on. In one night, there are several rounds in turn! Of course, parents don't have to worry about the probability of suffocation caused by baby sleeping! (2011/28 was shot at the dome of the Han god ~ Lele who insisted on sleeping in a unicycle ~) Cocoa Lele of the Coke family grew a full oval face with a round head because of sleeping. Coke mom herself belongs to a flat-headed family with a flat back and a wide face. It should be because she slept on her back when she was a child. Traditional elders always like the Chinese character face with a big face, thinking that it is the only way to be blessed, even the grandmother of the Coke family thinks so. But when Coco Lele has a beautiful oval face that everyone envies and a beautiful head shape that everyone praises, grandma will not insist on and oppose the baby's sleeping! Of course, in addition to the good-looking head shape, the baby's stable and sweet sleep is the biggest reason to support sleep! Mom Coke searched the ancient dog on the Internet and found this book "Link", which has created a miracle for a hundred years, "For sleep health", and recommended sleeping! Even the parenting books taught by centenarians support the baby to sleep on his stomach. Since all the data show that sleeping on your stomach is better for your baby, healthier, and can take care of your head … and so on. Coke mom absolutely supports the baby to sleep, and of course caregivers should pay more attention to the baby's safety! I'm used to sleeping on my stomach ~ Even when I grow up, I'm still used to sleeping on my stomach ~ Turn right or sleep sideways after I fall asleep ~) Debbie, I hope you don't mind if I put "Baby Sleeping on His Stomach" into an article and post it in my blog for your reference. I hope this article is helpful to you. If there are any other questions that need help, please leave a message again and exchange parenting experiences with each other! Finally, I wish you a natural birth ~ (taken in Lele, which is not full moon on 201/07 ~ I fell asleep in my parents' bed after taking a shower ~) = * = * = * = * = "The following is the network information. According to the report in the journal Pediatric Medicine, the researchers studied the sleeping posture of 350 healthy babies, and found that the intelligence of babies sleeping on their stomachs developed rapidly, but babies sleeping on their stomachs could catch up with those sleeping on their stomachs slowly. But sleeping on your stomach is easy to suffocate suddenly, and sleeping on your back is safer. So, how do you want your baby to sleep, so that he can be smart and healthy and not suddenly suffocate? The researchers suggest that when sleeping at night, it is best to let the baby sleep lying down. When taking a nap during the day or being taken care of by an adult, adjust the sleeping position to a state of sleeping on your stomach. It is best to keep proper temperature, humidity and light in the baby's bedroom, so that the baby can sleep soundly. The nursery should be kept at an appropriate temperature and humidity. It is suggested that the optimum temperature is between 26 and 28, and the relative humidity is between 50 and 60. In addition to room temperature, parents should also pay attention to the possibility that their baby is bitten by mosquitoes. The advantage of sleeping on your stomach is that the fetus is curled up in the mother's uterus, with the abdomen inward and the back outward. This posture is the most natural self-protection posture, so the baby feels more secure when sleeping on his stomach, and it is easy to sleep soundly, which is not easy to wake up, which is conducive to the development of the baby's nervous system. Sleeping on your stomach can also let your baby blow his head and chest, exercise large muscle groups such as neck, chest, back and limbs, and promote the development of your baby's muscle tension. Sleeping on your stomach can also prevent vomiting and suffocation caused by food flowing back to the esophagus and mouth, and eliminate flatulence. Which babies are not suitable for sleeping on their stomachs? Babies with congenital heart disease, congenital wheezing, pneumonia, excessive phlegm and brain swelling when coughing due to a cold, and some babies with congenital hypertrophic pyloric stenosis, duodenal obstruction, Hirschsprung's disease, meconium obstruction, necrotizing enteritis, intussusception and ascites, blood tumor, kidney disease, abdominal mass and other diseases are not suitable for prone sleeping. Gastroesophageal reflux, obstructive dyspnea, torticollis, etc., which babies are very suitable for sleeping? You can try to sleep on your stomach to help relieve your illness. Children with small chin and big tongue and severe vomiting must sleep on their stomachs. Another situation needs special attention. Children often vomit when they have phlegm. Once they vomit, they should get down and let the food flow out, then they can lie down again, otherwise it will easily cause suffocation. If the baby sleeps on his stomach, parents must always pay attention to the situation when the baby is awake to avoid unnecessary accidents.
