A. Flat head in Babies is very commonly seen 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 bones such flattening can be there . This normalises by itself gradually when the skull grows in bsize and bbshape with age . No mustard seed pillow or any such kind of intervention like massage is required and doesnot help for the corrrection .there is nothing to worry at all.

A. no need to worry the shape of head will become normal soon For further advice it is advisable to consult your local doctor for appropriate examination if there is need for investigations also then only proper treatment can be given to you o . K .
