Majority of adults also have some flatness of head. Flatness of head does not affect the brain inside. It's just a cosmetic appearance. You can try keeping the baby in jholi. Also please give vitamin d drops like d3 must (400 units) 1 ml per day till 1 year of age

Hi, This is normal for the age. Place the baby on a hard surface during the day. You can use pillow made of ragi/ rice/ fenugreek.
