What's the reason for baby's sharp head

summary

I believe that mothers all like their babies to have a round head, but the head shape of newborn babies is generally not satisfactory, especially the natural born babies, whose heads look sharp. Can the baby's head be straight? How to let the baby have a good-looking head shape?

What's the reason for baby's sharp head

First: within a few days or weeks of delivery, the baby's head will slowly fall down into the mother's pelvis, and the skull will slowly adapt to the shape of the mother's pelvis. This phenomenon is called shaping. During production, the bones in the skull are squeezed and staggered to adapt to the pelvic birth canal. In addition, the baby's skull is very soft, easy to be squeezed by the birth canal and deformation, so the baby's head is a little sharp.

Second: in fact, the baby's skull has a strong plasticity. Before the fontanelle is closed, the skull has been shaping. About a few days after birth, the baby's head deformation will gradually disappear, head shape gradually round. Generally, after two or three months, the baby's head will return to the standard round shape (but some parts of the baby's skull will become flat). It's only a matter of time before the head returns to shape naturally, so moms don't have to worry too much. Some mothers want to round their baby's head, but this must be carried out under the guidance of the doctor, otherwise inexperienced mothers will easily hurt the baby.

Third: the baby's skull is soft, if long-term use of the same sleeping position, will affect his head shape and face shape. The best supine, lateral alternate, in the case of close family care, can let the baby prone for a short time, so that the baby can grow safely and healthily, but also help him sleep beautiful head shape and face shape.

matters needing attention

1. Control baby's weight. In order to prevent the deformation of the baby's head due to natural birth, it is suggested that pregnant mothers should pay attention to the diet during pregnancy, strictly control the baby's weight, and avoid excessive fetal size. In this way, the probability of deformation of the baby's head and maternal side cutting caused by natural birth will be reduced. 2. Pregnant mothers exercise more. More exercise during pregnancy can not only control the weight, but also benefit the delivery! Mother might as well try to walk fast, pregnant women yoga and other sports to help production.
