For me though I had never actually noticed the infant sleeping behavior noted in this thread. I would be very interested if others have personally observed the sleeping position / posture described.

I have always considered the reports of sasquatch and especially Russian sasquatch like creatures; (almas, almasti etc), as sleeping in a Garbhāsana (face down) posture with hands / arms drawn up under the chin, knees drawn up under the abdomen, butt raised dorsally as being strange, unnatural, and probably a matter of incomplete or mistaken observation. I was wrong. See Ref below.

I just returned home from a week long visit with my son and his family, who are the proud parents of an exceptionally bright (and large for his age, currently 28 lbs. @ eight months), boy. While there I repeatedly observed my Grandson’s sleeping posture which often ended up in his assuming that exact sleeping posture described above. Hmmm?…
