Patient's question:
The child just born doesn't know what's going on, there are always red spots on their body, and they are spitting up milk. Please ask what kind of pillow is comfortable for a newborn baby to sleep on.Doctor's answer:
The spine of a newborn baby is straight, and when lying flat, the back and the back of the head are on the same level. The baby's head is also quite large, almost as wide as the shoulders, and there is no discomfort when lying on the side. If a high pillow is used at this time, the baby's neck will be in a bent position, while the throat and trachea, which are located in the front neck, will be excessively bent like a rubber tube. This will narrow the diameter of the respiratory tract in the bent area, increasing air resistance during breathing and making it difficult to breathe. When the baby's neck is excessively bent, even if breathing is not smooth, the baby will lack the strength to struggle. After a while, the baby will exhaust its breathing strength and lose the ability to breathe, leading to suffocation and danger.
