Do you know this amazing soothing position?

Notice how baby is lying slightly angled, so she does not have to use energy holding her head in place. That way she can fully let go and be comforted.

Have a lovely day! ☀️

An effective tip to prevent a preferred side, back arching and flat head syndrome is to approach your baby from both sides throughout the day, starting from birth.

Do this when talking to your baby, changing your baby’s diapers, breastfeeding, bottle feeding, etc. This way, your baby engages both sides (stimulating both hemispheres of the brain) and keeps the muscles on both sides strong and flexible.

If it’s already a bit late for prevention and your baby tends to prefer lying with their head mostly to one side or directly in the middle, you can still address it with my programs “Develobaby - Preferred Side” or “Develobaby - Back Arching and Flat Head.”

If your baby has a flat spot on the back of their head, here’s an easy method to help!

Roll up a small towel or blanket and gently place it under your baby’s neck while they are awake and supervised. This helps relieve pressure from the back of their skull and encourages head movement in all directions.

⚠️ Important: Never use this method during naps or bedtime when your baby is unsupervised. Safety first!

This tip is a part of my program “Back Arching and Flat Head” which contains all the best practice exercises and positioning tips according to Danish Health Standards. Comment “ARCH” for link!

Place a book under one side of the carrycot - on the same side you’d like your child to turn away from. This tilts the carrycot slightly, so the pressure on the back of the head is reduced while your child still lies on their back. The weight is simply shifted a little away from the flat spot.

If you have a soft carrycot or a sleep pod, use a firmly rolled towel instead of a book.

Important: Children are recommended to sleep on their backs when they’re not supervised. So be careful not to tilt the carrycot too much. Use a regular-sized book, about 5-7 cm (2-3 inches) in height.

Most babies show signs of sensory seeking now and then. That is, of course, completely normal. But if your baby is wriggling, kicking, arching, rolling around, or waking again and again, it can affect your baby’s sleep quality significantly.

Sensory seeking means your baby is looking for extra sensory input to the body in order to regulate and settle down. Their nervous system is still immature, so they can easily get overstimulated, which creates a need for regulation. And they can get that through rocking, bouncing, sucking, rubbing, pressing, chewing, twisting, etc.

It is their way of saying, “I need more input to feel my body, so I can settle down.”

And yes, it is normal. But normal can still be exhausting. Especially when you are the one doing the rocking for the fifth time that night.

The good news is that you can help. When you give your baby the right kind of sensory input during the day, their body often stops “starving” for it at bedtime. Many parents notice less motor restlessness, easier settling, and fewer wake ups, because the need for input has already been met.

In my online mini course, “DeveloBaby Sleep”, you will find all the best science backed exercises for baby sensory stimulation.

Simple, doable sensory activities that support your baby’s regulation and help sleep feel easier.

This really cute little guy prefers to look to the right rather than to the left. So his parents are helping him get lots with “left looking” practice throughout the day.

But his mom observed that it can be a bit tricky at times which side he needs to look to depending on the orientation of his body relative to hers, and because his preferred side is not yet clear enough that it’d always be obvious.

So I taught her this little trick:

Roll up the sleeve on the side you should approach your baby from. That way it does not matter whether you are facing the same way or opposite directions, and you will never again get left/right confused and accidentally strengthen the preferred side even more.

Follow along for more parenting hacks!

A flat spot at the back of the head can develop when a baby develops a preferred side. That means the baby tends to lie with their head turned to the same side over and over.

The Health Authorities recommend that babies sleep on their back to reduce the risk of SIDS. If a baby has a preferred side, that does mean though that the surface applies consistent pressure to the same spot of the soft skull. Over time, that pressure can create a visible flattening of the skull.

In some cases, such a flattening can develop in just a few days, so it’s a good idea to keep an eye on it. In the video here you can see an example of a flat spot to the right.

Sometimes you can clearly see the flat spot with the naked eye, like with the child in the video. Other times you need to look a bit closer and assess the position of the ears, for example whether one ear is positioned slightly more toward the forehead than the other.

In either stadium, preferred side alone, with or without flat head and with or without banana-shape, strength exercises are almost always the first and most effective line of defense. The exercises are meant to strengthen the opposite side of the body, such that the preferred side subsides and with that the head shape normalizes.

You can use the exercises in my program “Back Arching and Flat Head” from the very moment you notice that your child prefers one side. Importantly, the earlier exercises are begun, the easier it is to regain full symmetry and normal head shape. Of course, the program can also be used if a flat spot has already developed and the preferred side has become more obvious.

When your child side steps around furniture, it strengthens their core and the muscles on the outsides of the hips.
These are the muscles your child needs to stabilize their body on the way toward strong, stable walking. That is why it is such a good idea to come up with fun ways to motivate your child to move sideways. That can be little snacks, flashing toys, or, like here, a self driving Brio train 🤩

If you want to support your child’s natural movement patterns on the way to walking, you can find exercises and play ideas for this in my brand new exercise program “Walking”. If you want a direct link so you can read more, comment “WALKING”.
