Flat Head - Tips to Avoid It (and what to do if you notice a flat spot)

[@mimosasamosa]

The best way to prevent flat head is using a mustard seeds pillow. Make a small pillow and fill it with big size mustard seeds but don't fill it too densely. It works like a charm. Anyone who's interested can Google on how to make it.

I had a 6 month baby, with a extremly flat head, and the doctor recommand the helmet. I didnt want that, i told her give me two month to fix it, if i cant then we will get the helmet. Here we are he is 8 month and have the perfect round shape without buying the helmet. I started a 6 month of age to let him sleep on the side with a pillow behind his back and a long pillow infront, i wanted him to switch sides but he liked one side so i let him only sleep on one side. But it helped, i went to his doctor and she said its perfect and round not something she expected in 2 month.

[@lailalulu8220]

And i bought a walker, i know doctors dont like it, but he walks in it, so he dont sleep on his back.... most important let them sit or tummy time, so they they dont sleep on there head

Put the baby on the side with a pillow behind the back to keep him in place and a teddy or something like a long pillow that cant sufficate if he grabs it. Mine only wanted to sleep on one side.

In the UK concerns over a baby's flat spot get dismissed on GP visits; every time they say it's cosmetic, there's nothing to worry about, it corrects itself with time. That is absolutely not true.

No, my friends has issue with this flat head syndrome is real in my country

I've had the same issue 😟 they just don't want to do anything, she lays on her left side so her head has gone flat on that side. I've tried all of these options but she's stubborn and won't do them 😐 she's 12 weeks now and I'm so worried 🥺

[@jasiimeyes]

​@Hannah Scott I'm in the exact same position. My 3 month old has had an obvious flat spot since very young (basically since right after birth). I've been doing guppy time to help with her neck and tummy time since birth. I did all of the things in this video but it's getting worse. Now it's so flat on the back that she won't sleep with her head to either side. I've brought it up at every GP visit and they don't care. They say it will get better on its own but I'm worried it won't.

[@jimmyelson]

Hey@@hanfran89, @Shali Shahee, keen to hear how your babies are doing now? Our baby has exact same issue! She prefers one side to the other. We went to see the Osteopath, who will give her massage and recommended a stretching exercise to relax the muscle tightness on her favorite side. We've also bought a pillow from Amazon with a hole in the middle - that helps that even if she turns her head to her favourite side, it won't apply so much pressure as she won't fully lie on that side of the head! I am hoping that the flat head she has on one side will improve but I wanted to hear if anything helped your babies so far? Thanks in advance

[@Maes809]

I feel guilty about my son’s head shape. When he was a baby, he spent a lot of time laying on his back because that’s what the hospital advised me to do. I was 22 and a first-time mother, and no one informed me about the potential issue with head shape and how to prevent it. After six months, I noticed that his head was flat, and I was upset that no one had warned me about it. Although his head shape has improved since then, it is still somewhat flat. I have carried this guilt since 2019, and I despise this feeling because I cannot go back in time to fix it. If I could, I would. I have become overly obsessed with comparing my son’s head to other people’s heads and questioning myself as a mother. It feels like everyone else knows about this issue except me. It was never discussed in my family, and I had no prior knowledge of it. Interestingly, my own head is also flat, but I was unaware of it.

[@danielleterreblanche8145]

My first son also has quit a flat head and at first I felt guilty for it. But his cousins head is exactly the same shape (that cousin was a colic baby so my sister let him sleep literally on her chest most if the time which made flat head very unlikely.) So what I really want to say is that sometimes a flatter head is caused by genetics and not too much back-laying. So don’t beat yourself up mamma 🤗

My baby has his very own soft my pillow that he has slept on since birth. It keeps him on his back by cradling him just enough and it keeps him elevated because he had breathing issues as a brand new baby. I also used it for feedings. He has never slept on a hard surface and other than his pillow he has slept on his tummy on my chest 24/7. I know this is all said to be bad but as parents we find things that work for us and our children and I would never do anything that was unsafe for him. As a mother of 6 I have picked up tips and tricks to make motherhood a bit less stressful especially in the exhausting newborn stage. Everything I do I also run by his pediatrician for clearance.

Oft ist das os sacrum auch dislokalisiert, was zu einer Fehldiagnose im Hüftsceening führt. Nicht korrigiert , entsteht eine Skoliose daraus. Vielen Kindern könnte so geholfen werden.

[@EmmaHubbard]

Hi K C these tips will also help with brachycephaly. At 4 months baby's generally start to move around a lot more (might start rolling, enjoying tummy time, starting to prefer to sit in supported sitting when sitting on your lap) which starts to take the pressure off the back of the head and limit the degree of flattening. Always good though to take your little one to the doctor to see if your baby needs to be referred to specialist.

My baby can move his head in both directions but just insists on using one side consistently (especially when sleeping) I've tried all the repositioning tips, but he just turns his head back to his favoured side, the only thing that has some success is me sitting next to him and turning him back each time, but as you can imagine that's not a very practical solution and means I don't get a whole lot of sleep if I'm watching him sleep every nap.

How is your baby now? Did the issue self correct?

HI my son is 13 month old still he not walking but he holding wall and walking give some tips plz.... 😊

[@EmmaHubbard]

Sounds like he is well on his way to talking. Once he starts to feel more stabile when walking along the wall, he will stop holding on and start to stand and then eventually walk. Just keep giving your bub the chance to practice walking when he is supported (walker if he likes them and holding onto the wall).

Thank you soo much 😊

What's going on kindly help...

[@EmmaHubbard]

Hi @TS MS sorry this is outside of my scope. I would recommend you take your little one to their doctor or a speech pathologist who would be able to give you advice and provide an assessment.

Hi emma my son has a flat spot on top of his head and he is 7 month old how will i know the severity of it

[@MyBlanket]

Can you have a video of what position causes flat head?

[@EmmaHubbard]

Hi Dendritica lying on their back and/or sitting in car seats or baby seats for prolonged periods causes the flatten to occur. Basically anything that applies prolonged external pressure on a baby's head. Remember though the recommendation is that baby's sleep on their back to reduce the risk of SIDS

[@MyBlanket]

@@EmmaHubbard would putting the baby in the crook or the forearm when they sleep would that cause it? Also love your videos 😊

[@cassidy6392]

We have a 5 month old with a slightly flattened back of her head. Our pediatrician told us it would self correct. Is that true?

[@User2887a]

Did the flat spot self correct?

Hello Emma my baby is 5 months and he is crawling with hus back its it normal

[@EmmaHubbard]

Hi Esther he might just be kicking his legs and pushing with his legs which makes him move when lying on his back. He is still really young and has plenty of time to crawl the traditional ways. Always good to see a doctor in person though as they can assess your little one in person.

Hi Emma, I did a stupid and scary mistake at the same time. I used to keeping my smartphone under my pillow. This morning my 1 month baby's crying because she's hungry. So I woke up and ready to feed her. I need to support my Backbone with something soft and fluffy while I'm feeding my baby. So I grab the nearest pillow instantly, but I forgot that there's a smartphone under my pillow 😞 My smartphone's flying and hit her forehead (luckily it wasn't on anterior fontanelle) and she's start screaming. I'm panic, but still trying to calm her down with holding and shaking her body softly. She stops screaming in a few seconds. But I can see clearly, the bruises on her forehead. What should I do?

[@okohblessingoka6533]

The head will always regain it's shape after one year. No need for all this stress.
