Question
Can a baby’s flat head shape return to round?
Answer
A baby’s flattened head shape may be due to long-term lying down while sleeping. Parents can try adjusting the baby’s sleeping position to avoid always lying on their back. Additionally, appropriate sun exposure and supplementation with calcium and vitamin D may help with the natural correction of the head shape. If concerned, it is advisable to bring the baby to a pediatrician for further examination and consultation.
