Question

My baby has been 6 months old now and is very smart, but the only problem is that the baby’s head looks a bit flat. I’m not sure what to do, and the elders say it’s because the baby sleeps in one direction. The baby’s head has become flat.

Answer

Hello, dear parent, the younger the child, the easier it is to correct. Use a pillow for adjustment while sleeping. If the left side is higher, raise the right side a bit, and vice versa. Children tend to move around while sleeping, so be sure to check frequently. I discovered this issue with my child at 4 months old and corrected it using this method. Now, at about 1 year and a few months old, you can help adjust your baby’s head.
