What is the cause of baby's baldness on the pillow?

The phenomenon of babies sleeping on their pillows is quite common. In fact, parents do not need to worry too much about it. The main reason is that the baby is restless when sleeping and turns his head back and forth. Therefore, we must create a good sleeping environment for the baby. At the same time, we must pay attention to calcium supplementation and add more nutrition.

1. If the baby only has slight pillow pain, it may be that the baby's head is uncomfortable when sleeping and he often turns his head back and forth, which causes excessive friction on the head and causes hair to not grow around the head. At this time, parents can put a soft pillow or cushion under the baby when the baby is sleeping, which can reduce the friction on the baby's head.

2. If the baby is not comfortable when sleeping at night and often turns his head back and forth and rubs his hair, it can easily lead to baldness on the pillow. At this time, you should make sure your baby is well fed before going to bed, avoid crying before going to bed, and dress and cover himself with comfortable quilts. This way, your baby will sleep soundly and will not turn over too frequently, and the baldness on the head will gradually improve.

3. Another reason for baby pillows is calcium deficiency, so it is necessary to supplement calcium for the baby in time. In normal meals, giving your baby more dried shrimps, green leafy vegetables, soy milk, etc. can relieve your baby's calcium deficiency symptoms.

4. If the baby's baldness on the back of the head is more serious, in addition to calcium supplementation through diet, the baby should also be given appropriate calcium supplements, such as calcium gluconate, calcium carbonate, etc., and given to the baby one pill before going to bed every night. This will provide the baby with more adequate calcium supplements.

5. While supplementing calcium, let your baby get more sun exposure. On a sunny day, choose to let your baby get some sun exposure after 10 am or after 2 pm. It is better to control the time to half an hour to an hour each time. When babies bask in the sun, it can not only kill bacteria, but also supplement vitamin D and promote calcium absorption.

6. The baby's occipital baldness will gradually disappear as the baby grows older. As long as the baby does not have other abnormal symptoms such as itching, redness, swelling, etc. on the head, parents do not need to take the baby to the hospital for special examination.
