A. As the baby is growing their body structure keeps changes so with time it will get better to the point that it won’t be very evident. Usually happens due to stress during delivery totally normal nothing to worry about , as he long as he is a happy child . Won’t recommend any harsh massage

A. due to pressure on one side of the head during sleeping there is flatness / abnormal shape on that side of the head. no treatment is required for flat head / bumpy head and you will see that by one year to two years of age the flat head will go away as soon as the child begins to sit and later walk. pillows will not help much in this case so do not worry. the bones in the skull are elastic so to give space to the growing braxin it takes different shape and when the growth of the brain occurs properly then gradually they will take a normal shape.

A. See as a lot of doctors say on this platform only they say that as the child is going to grow up the skull is going to take a proper place and it is going to become big so the head of the shape should be proper mostly by the time of five years
