Babies are a gift from heaven to every family. Every day, facing a cute and soft baby brings happiness, and the baby receives comprehensive care from everyone in the family. Parents are well aware of their babies' clothing, food, housing, transportation, and various small changes in their daily lives. However, do parents know why a baby's tongue is stuck on their palate? Is this a normal phenomenon?
A baby's tongue is in a relaxed state. If a baby's tongue is on the palate, it does not mean that the baby is sick or that their development is abnormal. It is only a manifestation of the baby's relaxed state. For example, when a baby is sleeping, due to the need for smooth breathing, the baby may open their mouth. When the mouth is open, the baby needs to use their tongue to support the weight of the mouth by pressing against the chin. At this time, the baby is very relaxed. If the baby doesn't have this movement, it means the baby may not be feeling well.
It is possible to correct a baby's tongue protruding from the upper jaw. If parents are very concerned that their baby's tongue touching their palate in daily life, rather than sleeping, will affect their baby's mouth shape or exercise breathing through the nose, they can help their baby correct this problem. If the baby is unwilling, parents should not force it too much and make the baby feel unhappy, because this phenomenon is not a problem with the human body's health, but a small personal habit issue that does not require excessive attention.
