Flat head on left side

2024-01-31 04:41:51
Hello my 4 month old has a flat spot on left side and recently she has started rolling over from back to tummy. In the night  after she is kept on her back, she tries to roll over in sleep after sometime and I place a load so she doesn't roll over in sleep, while doing so she sleeps on her left side almost all night and stiffens her body if I try to bring her back on her back. Due to this her flat spot is worsening I think. During day time she sleeps on her back. What can be done? Will the flat spot go away on its own since repositioning is not working

Keep her on otherside of bed and keep load in such way that she sleeps on her right side. During day time, keep her in such way that attractive things are towards her right, so that she tries to look towards her right and sleep towards her right. She will automatically look towards right and sleep towards right.
