A. there is no problem if the child is sleeping on the side or the child is sleeping on the tummy. the important thing is that if the czhild is not having any difficulty in breathing as well as respiration and digestion problem thezn you can continue to let the child sleep as well as give feeding in this position. but if you feel that the child is having regzular coughing as well as breathing difficulty then you have to change the position of the child

A. Hello mom It is quite normal and you should not worry about it at all now you baby is growing and baby would not like to sleep straight and this is totally normal so you should not worry about it at all. Once you baby turned six months old and you can also start giving solids and water to your baby till the time baby should be totally on
