Children who sleep in a curled-up fetal position often appear strong on the outside but are very sensitive on the inside.

When they encounter problems, these children tend to keep it to themselves and do not want to bother others. Their lively exterior hides a fragile heart, ready to sacrifice and help others.

Sleeping on the stomach
Young children who sleep in a stomach-down position, with their bottoms up, legs spread wide, and arms close to their knees, are usually very sensitive to noise and easily wake up. Children who sleep in this position often feel secure and prefer a tidy and organized sleeping space. They tend to have an energetic, lively, and confident personality when expressing themselves in front of others. This also shows their leadership abilities and persuasive skills.
These children have a high self-esteem and do not like criticism. They may lack patience at times. According to research, children who sleep on their stomachs tend to develop faster. However, for young children, this sleeping position can be dangerous due to a high risk of suffocation. Therefore, sleeping on the back is a safer choice at night, and when the child sleeps on their stomach, there should be an adult nearby to supervise.
