Baby flat head issue
My baby is 4 & 1/2 months old. His birth weight was 2.75kg and current weight is 6kg. I'm worried about his habit of sleeping on right side because of which his back side of head has become flat on right side and round on left. So how to overcome this as due ro this he also keeps his neck bent more towards right shoulder.

Greetings, nothing to worry as the age passes it will be alright. You can use U shaped pillows which will be available in the market or you can change the position of the baby frequently that will help the little bit.
