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 brain it takes different shape and when the growth of the brain occurs properly then gradually they will take a normal shape. it is very common that during the first one or two months and sometimes up to four mosnths the child may be having one sided preference that is the child might be sleeping only on the one side or the head will see only on sdingle side but no need to worry it will improve in next few months
