how to choose and use pillows is naturally the "top priority" of the baby. But for a novice mother, there seems to be a lot of confusion and doubt about the baby's Pillow - the little edited to tell you about the new baby's pillows.
[b] newborns need pillows? [/b]
newborn babies generally do not need to use pillows, because the size of the newborn's head is almost as wide as the shoulder. When lying down, the back and back of the head are on the same plane; while lying on the side, head and body are on the same plane. But if the mattress is soft, when the thick clothes are sleeping in the cold, or when the milk is spilled, the mother can fold the towel for 2 times and cushion the baby's head. Or let the baby lie on the right side, and the upper half of the towel folded slightly slightly higher.
baby's head is more backward. When lying flat on the back, the head and two shoulder flattens will bend the neck of the front, and the throat and trachea of the respiratory tract are located just in the front and neck, and the excessive bending of the rubber hose will make the inner diameter of the respiratory tract narrow and increase the call. When inhaling the air flow resistance, the breathing is more laborious. Therefore, the baby's pillows should be laid on the lower neck and shoulders. In this way, the infant's respiratory tract can be prevented from being oppressed.
[b] pillow, not use the [/b]
baby for about 3 months or so, learn to look up, the neck segment of the spine appears forward physiological bending. It's better to start using a pillow at this time. However, when many babies sleep, they often leave their pillows unconsciously, and little pillows that mothers prepare for them are useless. So, do not sleep with pillows, the baby's physical development has no adverse effects?
1 before the age of the baby, the head is relatively large, the spinal curvature is not deep, as long as the baby does not feel uncomfortable, no pillow is not related. But with the development of the body, the shoulders of children gradually widened. In order to protect normal physiological flexion and maintain normal physiological activities during sleep, pillow should be used when sleeping. A good pillow can support the cervical spine very well. Without it, the quality of sleep will be discounted.
[b] hard, or soft good? [/b]
baby's pillow, whether the pillow is hard or soft?
some mothers like to use a little hard pillow for the baby, think this can make the baby's skull long and strong, the head shape looks good, but this is not correct. The pillow with good texture will cause fatigue of the neck muscles and cause stiff neck after sleep. The baby's skull is soft, and the chimney and skull line is not completely closed. For a long time, it will cause cranial deformation or big and small face, which will affect the beautiful appearance. However, the soft pillow can not support the cervical spine well, and because the contact with the baby's scalp is too large, is not conducive to blood circulation, poor air permeability, even affect the breathing, especially when the baby's fever is more unsuitable for use. Therefore, the baby's pillow should be soft and moderate, if mother is his own pillow, may as well choose buckwheat skin, rapeseed, tea, chrysanthemum and other green materials as filler.
Tip:6 months ago, the baby could be suffocated by using too soft pillow.
