What Causes Excessive Salivation In A Child?

Hello and thank you in advance for your time and answer to my question that might assist me with dealing with my baby s (2 month old boy) excessive saliva. We are concerned that sleeping him on his back is dangerous but our only options at this point. Do you have any alternative sleeping advice or tips that might help us. Thanks again!

Hi, this is a normal thing. Just change the position of child during sleep. Meditation is not needed for this. Take care.
