Why does the baby like to sleep on their stomach?

Patient's question:

My baby is now 1.5 years old and often likes to sleep on her stomach. At night, she tosses and turns and is very restless. Is this a medical condition? However, she eats normally and is in good spirits. What could be the reason?

Doctor's answer:

A child with such a habit should be checked for whether it is caused by gastrointestinal diseases. It is important to observe whether there are symptoms of abdominal pain or diarrhea, or if it is due to irregular eating habits.
Advice: Pay attention to the child's eating habits. If there are no symptoms mentioned above, the problem should not be serious. It is advisable to avoid excessive sweet foods and regularly deworm.
