For inexperienced novice parents, the body proportions of newborn babies are generally very symmetrical. Therefore, when they see their babies with long upper body and short lower body, they cannot help but worry that there is a problem with their body development. So, what should newborn babies do if they have long upper body and short lower body?
The length of the upper body of the human body is determined by the height of the spine, and the length of the lower body is determined by the length of the lower limbs. It is a common phenomenon for newborns to have a longer upper body and a shorter lower body. As long as there are no deformities or other abnormalities in the knee joints of the lower limbs of newborns, correction is not necessary. As they age, the body proportions of newborn babies gradually adjust.
As long as the child's intelligence and physical condition are not a problem, their mental state is good, and they can eat and sleep, parents don't have to worry and be nervous too much. In order to enhance the immunity of newborns, ensure that they can receive balanced nutrition, and promote healthier physical development, it is recommended to prioritize breastfeeding.
If parents are really worried and afraid that their children will have disabilities when they grow up in the future, they can try this method: gently hold the newborn baby's feet on top, bottom, left, and right, slowly stretch them 10 to 15 times, and interact with the child with gentle movements, including the arms. Doing this training for children several times a day can help them grow and make them feel very comfortable.
