Brain growth is indicated by head circumference. As a pediatrician has checked the child, it must be normal and major head deformities must have been ruled out. Head shape does not affect brain inside. Due to soft skull, head may flatten on one side. This usually corrects as head size grows by 5 years of age. Try a jhola. Don't worry too much about minor head shape abnormalities. It doesn't make a difference in the long term
