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 bones such flattening can be there . This will become normal by itself gradually when the skull grow in size and shape with age . No musturd seed pillow or any su noch kind of intervention like massage is required for the corrrction .

A. hi dear Flat head syndrome usually happens when a baby sleeps with the head turned to the same side during first months of life. This causes a flat spot, either on one side or the back of the head. Flat head syndrome is also called positional plagiocephaly (pu-ZI-shu-nul play-jee-oh-SEF-uh-lee). I suggest you to choose a good brand for your little one like Babyhug this brand is most trusted by mom's

I always put her in the straight position but she somehow manages to get her head tilted on the left side. Her left side has become too flat now. i have almost tried everything so that she does not tilt her head but all in vain as she manages to go on the left side.
