11 month old flat head on both sides

2017-05-04 16:28:42
My 11 month old baby sleeps only on sides.not on back . From 5 month onwards.had long and cone shaped head due to molding at birth.but after 5 month I am seeing noticeable difference in head shape. Very long and narrow.very very flat on both sides of the head. Pls help. Tried rolling towels and support so to put baby to sleep on back. Doesn sleep on cloth jhoola. If I reposition baby again turns to side...pls suggest any treatment in India like cranial osteopath, helmets?.....

If baby's development is normal don't worry. Check head circumference with your doctor once. If it's normal. Don't worry. It will get adjusted as baby grows. Meet your pediatrician once.
