A. Flat head in Babies is very common mostly on one side initially when the baby is not flipping on the sides in the first few months . so because of the continuous pressure over the soft skull bongyes such flattening can be there . This will become normal by jitself gradually when the skull grow in size and shape with age . No musturd seed pillow or any such kind of intervention like massage is required for the corrrction .

A. Hello dear parent! As advised earlier please try using Babyhug mustard pillow for your baby. It will be effective. Regularly massage your baby. Continue to exclusively breastfeed your baby. Good luck and take care
