Most parents have this prejudice. They think that a baby sleeping on his stomach can easily hinder the baby from breathing and cause suffocation. In fact, the newborn baby has the ability to defend itself. When he lies on his stomach, he will instinctively hold his mouth. The nose is exposed, breathing comfortably. Sleeping on your stomach not only does not affect the development of the chest and lungs but on the contrary, helps the growth and development of the chest and lungs. Because the baby’s chest compresses the bed when lying on the tummy, the bed will give a counteract pressure to massage the baby’s chest, which can increase the baby’s vital capacity and promote the development and maturity of the respiratory system, especially for newborns who are not a full moon. If the baby spits up milk, it will flow out along the corner of the mouth, so that the vomit will not be inhaled into the trachea and cause suffocation danger. Therefore, in many countries, it is liked to let the child fall asleep in a prone position.
