The arrival of a baby is something that brings happiness and joy to all parents, but there are many problems that arise during the baby's growth process, which is also a headache and heartache for all parents. For example, if the baby is naughty and disobedient, if the baby has diarrhea, if the baby grows into a flat head, and so on. So, how can a baby recover if their head is flat?
To restore the flat head condition of the baby, it is necessary to adjust the sleeping posture of the baby. Do not let the baby's head always tilt to one side when sleeping, and alternate between sleeping on the left and right sides and lying flat. This can be done using a light source, as babies always prefer to sleep in the direction of light. In addition, when playing with your baby, you can intentionally change direction and not always tease them in the same direction.
Flat head usually occurs in babies around four months old, because before that, babies are already asleep. If the sleeping posture is not good, or if they only sleep on one side for a long time, it is easy to form flat head. At around six months old, the baby can sit up and the condition of flat head usually does not worsen anymore, because at this time, the baby does not necessarily have to lie down. And as babies grow up, some cases of flat heads can recover on their own.
Additionally, parents should be aware that having a flat head on their baby's head only affects their appearance and has no impact on their brain and intellectual development.
