A. Dear parent, That is very normal and it will get fixed by itself in future. One thing you can do is, please make sure to change the side of baby's head (right, left and straight) at regular intervals. This may help to an extent, not to get flattened too much.

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 bonesr 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 ogr any such kind of intervention like massage is required for the corrrction .

A. Hello dear parent, this is absolutely normal among babies. As babies lie on one side for most of the tie leading the head to get flat from that side. This will improve on its own as baby will start sitting and standing. Do nkt worry. Also do nkt try anything on your own.

Q. #AskTheExpert My 2 month old daughter has developed a flat spot on the left side of her head. 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. Please help me how can I get her head back to normal shape. I am very worried looking at the shape of her head.
