You can change baby's sleeping position frequently. Like one position one day to avoid flattening on skull on one side.one day flat, one day right side, one day left side And repeat. There's still scope to change/ remodel baby's head shape. As such nothing to worry about this kind of flattening with respect to baby's development.
