I dont see a pic :/

I don't see anything and can't click the link, but DS had one and his pedi sais to make sure he does lots of tummy time, switch his head position while he's sleeping so that he doesn't always put pressure on that spot, and you can also rotate the crib/ bassinet whatever because they will instinctively have they're head face the room not the wall.

Let me try in Computer brb

I can't see the pic, BUT a friend of mine had this issue with her daughter, they corrected it by giving her a lot of tummy time and trying to avoid laying the baby on her back unless it was a diaper change. The doctors had told her if the flat spot did not correct itself by 4 or 5 months they were going to fit the baby for a correcting helmet to reposition the skull and shape it more proportioned.

Ok i got the picture up

I notice it. My daughter had a flat spot on her head. Tummy time and rubbing the spot is suppose to help it.
My daughter needed a corrective helmet. She needed for about 5 months (from 6-11 months)

Just do lots of tummy time and the other things I posted earlier and it'll help round out. My son has one, we noticed it around 8 weeks and at 4 months its so much better.

Did it look like my dd or worse?

My DDs spot was in a different spot and unless you knew what your were looking for it wasnt that noticeable .

My dd is 11.5 months old and her whole right side of the back of her head is flat. She was never a back sleeper, slept on her tummy from birth, but when sitting in her car seat or stroller or her swing and bouncey chair she favored that side.

Your dd's is very very very mild and will go away. Just ask your pedi.

I thought my dd would need a helmet, but they said no it was actually very mild, then they showed me pictures of severe cases of flat head. And it was mild compared to those babies. But my dd's wont go away sdo at her 1 yr check up, they are going to reasses her and decide if she needs a he;met to reshape it since it wont on its own.

Its actually better to get a helmet when their young

They said it was normal . Her head was not flat

They don't do them here till after age 1.
