Question
Can an 8-month-old baby’s misshapen head be corrected?
Answer
Before three to four months, the baby could sleep through it, but if it can’t be corrected, then you might have to use a corrective helmet to assist the baby in adjusting. Let the baby alternate between sleeping on the left, right, and flat sides, switching every three days. This way, the baby’s head can be very nice. It’s important to carefully care for the baby’s head contour within the first year, as it affects the baby’s entire life. Parents should be concerned about preventing the baby from sleeping with a crooked or flat head. A pillow can be used as early as three months old. Buy a baby-specific pillow (recommended price over 30 yuan), prepare several pillowcases or use small towels as substitutes, because babies are very prone to sweating on their heads. It’s important to maintain hygiene; otherwise, they may develop heat rash. Babies who use soft pillows won’t have such flat heads.
