How does the Miyo® Baby Hammock prevent plagiocephaly (flat head syndrome)?
The bones in a baby’s skull are very soft which helps them to come through the birth canal. SIDS prevention guidelines instruct parents to lay their babies on their backs. In some babies, if they do not receive enough play time on their stomachs, the bones start to mould to the shape of the mattress, giving them a distinctive flat head. The mattress in the Miyo® Baby Hammock is very soft and moulds to the shape of the baby’s head, meaning beautifully rounded heads whilst still providing the correct spinal position.
