Sleep on chest (still)
.jpg)
Looking back at the days when am still a newborn; right after full month, I was put on my chest/stomach down to sleep on my cot. Those were the days.. Mom missed them though since now I had become naughtier each day... Anyway, till now am already 18months+, I still do sleep on my chest at times.. I felt more comfortable this way. The other way of sleeping will be sleeping on my side (without a pillow). Till now, I dun seem to need a PILLOW... as long as I have my pungent-smelling bolster; it makes my day perfect.
The other day, Mom attended an old friend's 2nd daughter full month... Old fren was complaining to her about her 1st son's (coming to 3 yrs old) head being flat and started to envy my round head.. DUH... Reason was; her son has been lying flat to sleep since the day borned. So, Mom offered advice; to put this little tiny baby (since only a month old) to sleep on her chest down to shape a round nice head (round at the back).. LIKE ME!!! But anyway, old fren stared at Mom blankly and gave a frown. Mom got it and said, "Well, I do understand yr fears...but babies do know how to turn their heads at this age, u know.. but anyway, its her choice yeah." returning a smile after that. Uhm, her reluctant face had said it all. True enough, not many will want to take the risk.. but come to think of it; Mom also wondered; how the hell did she manage to convince herself; to put me on my chest/stomach down to sleep when I was 1month+ at then.. Well, guess its what we called the "peer pressure" among the most influential people at then.
