My 2-month-old son still bends his right ear while sleeping. I tried to bend it, but it's pointless because it twists right away anyway and falls asleep again with the bent one. Does such constant bending threaten its later withdrawal? Should I put a band on or stick the ear with a plaster, as some on the internet advise?

I think that sticking with a slice please give it to yourself, it may, for example, sensitize a child or irritate his skin. There are many theories about it, and there are many I have. Out of all the ideas that can be found on the Internet, I suggest a headband or a thin hat. You can make it at home from a thin stocking or buy it in a store (cotton). However, if this helps, I am not able to give you a 100% guarantee. Each child reacts to such things differently. If you are very concerned about this, please contact your pediatrician.
