A. Please Mommy dont cover baby head ever unless its biting cold. Covering baby head increases the risk of SIDS as baby loose heat of the body through head only. Dont keep any loose cloth anything beside him as it increases suffocation risk. Head circumference depends upon genetics nothing else.

A. There is nthng as such. It so hot and babies also feel the same. Ur baby is 2-3 mnths and there is no need to cover the head nw. Make her sleep on sides alternately so that head gets its shape
