Head shape!
Does anyone feel like their babies head is slightly misshapen?
She’s 17.5 weeks. It’s not really or anything but if I ran my hand over it the top is bigger on one side? Is this normal? Is their skull still forming??

My little one has positional plagiocephaly and has a miss shaped head, feel free to message xx
I saw on that until 18 months it’s not fused fully! They say it will keep changing and not to worry unless it is very very obvious/causing your baby any distress, such as tightness in their body! I feel like every baby goes through and odd shaped head phase, you can hold them as much as you like but they spend most of the first few weeks of their life asleep and you can’t force them to sleep a certain way!

I’m constantly worried that my baby (18 weeks old) has a flat head. I’ve had two separate people telling me his head looks flat and I should be worried. My baby hates the baby pillows and shakes his head to remove it. I try and hold him as much as possible and tummy time but he loves to be lying down. Makes me worry but I am hoping it will be okay!
