you need to mention this to a doctor. if it bad and doesnt straighten up you baby may have to wear a helmet. most uneven spots come from laying on one side too much. my son came out with a normal head and deveolped a flat spot a couple months later. we had to make him lay on the other side for a couple of weeks...almost 2 months to make it start to even out. buy a couple of wedges to place uder you baby back so that she/he will turn thier head to the other side. if your baby is a new born, this may even out on its own, but if not, make sure your doctor is keeping an eye on it. it can cause brain development to slow or stop in the area where the uneven spot is, which can cause sllow development iin speech, walking/crawling etc- esp in boys.

Yes it is. You will need to let your baby have some tummy time to help wiht her head and strengthing her arm muscles too. Have her sleep on her side sometimes too. Don't leave her in a bouncy seat or swing for too long. Get a baby carrier and start carrying her around as you do things too. Good luck.

................. You shaved your children head? ok, i'm sorry I had to get that out of my gadget. Now, there is a number of motives this his hair is popping out to be like that. Like the a number of above solutions state, toddler hair grows in diverse kinds and at diverse prices and also you'll discover that the perimeters that he lies on the most or the decrease back the hair will both fall out or strengthen a lot a lot slower till he learns to take a seat up on his personal for lengthy sessions of time. do not hardship, it truly is completely universal. have you ever considered a toddler with a bald spot on the decrease back of his/her head? i have considered it a large number of cases, so it truly is universal. merely... do not shave his head anymore,he's fantastic. : )

It could be the baby's "soft spot". It's normal for babies to have this. I think it is just a bit more sensitive. Just keep an eye on it, and if you think it is not normal, then ask the baby's physician.

Yes! If the baby stays on her back alot, she will get an indention in her head. Usually flat and sometimes bald. I know most folks put knit hats on babies heads to keep a round formation.

yes it is very normal. its called a lapelle or something along those lines. it will take a wee while to go away because of the time that the child spends on their back but in time it will go away. you have to be careful that the baby doesnt bump that part of their head though because that can be very dangerous

It means she's on her back or in some sort of seat (bouncy, car seat, swing) too much. Make sure she gets adequate tummy time during the day. She needs to build up her neck and abdominal muscles to learn to roll and crawl. Sometimes people get anxious putting babies on their stomachs b/c of SIDS but as long as they are awake it's ok!

Yes once she is not laying down all the time it should correct. If not they have helmets that can reshape the head back. I don't know anyone who has ever had to use one.
Just watch that she doesn't always keep her head to one side. Mention it to your doctor if she starts doing that.

Kind of flat? A newborn? Yeah that's normal. It'll go away when they can sit up and aren't laying down all the time.
