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 ofs 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 ddifferent shape and when the growth of the brain occurs properly then gradually they will take a normal shape.

A. See normally flathead is common in this age but if it is bulging out then it is better for you to check with your doctor as till the time you’re not much sure about the situation it’s difficult to give you guidance kindly consult the doctor one time
