Dr Sameer awadhiyaGuardian of 2 children3 years agoA. 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 sorft skull bones such flattening can be there . This will btecome normal by itself gradually when the skull grow in size and shape with age .
No musturd seed pillow or any such kind of intervention like massage is required for the corrrction .

shreya goelMom of 2 children3 years agoA. Hello mom
This is very common in babies. They prefer to sleep on any particular side but you should always try to make your baby sleep straight as much as possible. If you will keep trying this, then baby will start sleeping Straight with the next few days. You can also please pillows aside your baby so baby can sleep Straight
