Does Stroller Cause Back Bone Problems In Children?

default
Posted on Wed, 21 May 2014
Question: My baby is 5 months old. We recently purchased a stroller and will be using it for short walks. We are suddenly worried if the baby's back bone will get a bend in reclining position which is around 45 degrees. Is it so?

Brief Answer:
No problem.

Detailed Answer:
greetings,
Talking about stroll walks for children. it shouldn't be a problem as long as you are not excessively over doing it.newborns,infants have flexible bones and therefore generally any bony bends do not happen.
In case a need arises where you need to use the pram for a longer time try alternating positions a little as this will be comforting the child.
hope this has helped.
thanks and regards.
