My 5 weeks old LO is always sleeping on his right side. Often it’s just his head and remaining time his entire body is curled up sideways. When I keep him down I try to keep his head straight or left sided. However he moves right after sometime and he never keeps his head straight.
Should I be worried of flat head. Anyone experiencing same? Anything I should do?

Might be worth taking him to an osteopath. There could be some tension from birth causing him to have a preferred side for his head.
My little one laid with his head to the left side and osteopath recommended some exercises to help aftwr the app xx

My daughter did this, but eventually she stopped and she's absolutely fine. She's 18 months now and has no preference for a particular side. It's always worth chatting with a professional if you're unsure though. Trust your mama instinct
