Baby has flat head!

Hi! My baby is 2 months old. He favors sleeping with his head turned to the right. He has a flat spot. The pediatrician said it’s not bad but we need to correct it by setting him down Facing the opposite way. Well I’ve done this and he still favors the right side. Any suggestions?

I would find a chiropractor trained for infants to do some body work with your baby to see if that helps.

Please don’t listen to the peds, get some physical therapy my daughter is suffering from left torticollis and mine also brushed it off. Also unswaddle them immediately it will fix the flat head and turn their head to their non preferred side when they sleep

This website is great to find a pediatric chiropractor near you http://Icpa4kids.org our 2 month old has been going for a month and it has been great. Your baby is favoring one side because the other side is tight, and this tightening is causing your baby’s flat head. The chiro will give you stretches to do at home as well

Thank you so much everyone I never even thought about it being something with his neck muscles

@Michelle thank you for this!!
