Q.

My baby's head on one right side has somewhat become flat due to continuing sleeping in the same position, even though we shift his position he still tilts his head on the right side. He will become now 3 months old. Can we make the head shape change by any means

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 beginsx 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 brainx occurs properly then gradually they will take a normal shape.

A. Treatment consists of supportive care Varying a baby's head position can help. If it doesn't improve by the age of four months, a molded helmet might be required.
