What's the reason for a three-year-old sleeping on his stomach

summary

My son is now one and a half years old. He always likes to sleep on his stomach when he goes to bed at night. At the beginning, I didn't feel anything, because sometimes I like to sleep on my stomach. But the child's grandmother said that the child may have a stomachache or worms in his stomach, so he would sleep on his stomach. So we went to the hospital to get the insect medicine for the child, and went home to eat it for the child, but we didn't find any insects. The child is still sleeping on his stomach, and the child's grandmother still thinks there are insects to beat. Let's take a look at the following.

What's the reason for a three-year-old sleeping on his stomach

First: children like to sleep on their stomach, which is a normal phenomenon. Parents don't need to be too nervous. Because the child in the womb, the mother's posture, is the abdomen in the back out curl posture. So the child will be more secure when sleeping on his stomach, and it is not easy to wake up when he sleeps soundly.

Second: the baby likes to sleep on his stomach, which is good for the development of the baby's nervous system. Some research results show that the intelligence development of babies sleeping on their stomach is relatively fast, while the intelligence development of babies sleeping on their stomach is relatively slow, but they can also catch up with babies sleeping on their stomach slowly.

Third: Although the baby prone to sleep is good, but we still need to pay attention to in peacetime. Because sleeping on your stomach may cause sudden suffocation of your baby, but sleeping on your back or on your side is safer. Therefore, we suggest that the best time to sleep at night to let the baby lie down to sleep, nap during the day or when there is adult care can let the baby lie down to sleep.

matters needing attention

Parents should correctly realize that children like to sleep on their stomach is not a bad habit. Don't judge by yourself and give your child medicine randomly. This is a very blind practice. It will not only have no effect, but also damage the child's body.
