Patient's question:
Slightly over two months illness description: My son's neck is a bit crooked; he likes to sleep tilted. Past treatment history and effectiveness: Haven't consulted a doctor; Desired help: Looking for good methods to help him stop sleeping tilted.Doctor's answer:
Mother luring method: If your baby always sleeps on one side, the mother can switch sleeping positions with the baby. This means the mother should sleep on the other side of the bed, as babies tend to face the mother when sleeping. If the mother moves to the other side, the baby will also turn to sleep on that side. It is also recommended that mothers frequently switch sleeping positions with their babies to help them develop a habit of not preferring to sleep on only one side.Object luring method: If your baby tends to sleep with one side of their face turned, the mother or other family members can hang some small toys on the other side of the baby's bed. These toys should be ones the baby enjoys playing with and can make sounds when shaken. The height should be within reach of the baby's hands. When the parents are sleeping, they can gently guide the baby to turn their head to the other side to play with the toys. This will help the baby develop the habit of turning to the other side.
