Hi,
You are concerned about shape of head of your baby
It is common to have slight flat head for small infants
This is because small babies are always in
lying position
That means this shape of head is only positional.
No need to worry about it
Once baby start turning over, sitting etc, as it grows, shape of head will become normal
