How to solve the problem of baby's head shape not sleeping well

Patient's question:

I've barely used a pillow since I was born. When I was postpartum, it was summer, and the cooling mat was very hard. The baby also slept on both sides. Now the baby's head shape is slightly flattened on both sides. If the hair is freshly washed, it's quite noticeable. I've been quite worried about whether it will affect the growth and development of the back of the head. It's the position on both sides towards the back, and both sides are flattened.

Doctor's answer:

After the child is born, because they haven't had a full night's sleep, it has led to a relatively flat head. This situation will absolutely not affect intellectual and physical development, but it can be corrected. Here are some suggestions: You can appropriately use many infant deep sleep pillows to help reshape the head. Generally, this can provide some stability. You don't need to overworry or be too anxious about it. The above advice is for the question "What should I do if a 2-year-old's head shape isn't right due to sleeping?" I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
