    A full-moon baby cannot sleep on his stomach.

    Because, at this time, the child is small and the ability to survive is relatively poor. And he can't raise his head involuntarily, if he sleeps on his stomach for a long time, it may block the baby's mouth and nose, causing suffocation accidents. In this case, the child should lie flat for the first 3 months, that is, sleep with his chin lying on his back, so that he should try to look at the side, which is better.

    The child's sleeping position is related to the individual's habits, so in the confinement, the child can sleep in his own comfortable position, lying on his back, side or even sleeping on his stomach is no problem, but because the muscles of the child's neck in the confinement have not developed well, it is difficult for the child to raise his head, and even turn his head is difficult, so when the child sleeps on his stomach, there must be an adult next to him, so as not to cover the child's mouth and nose by the bedding or other clothes around it, and cause the child to suffocate and cause hypoxia. It will be life-threatening. If there is no adult to supervise the child, try to let the child sleep on his back or side. Then the child must stand up and pat the back to burp after feeding, and at the same time, the child who has just been fed should try to sleep on his side to avoid suffocation caused by milk.
