How to correct the baby flat head?
Baby's flat head is a common head deformity, which is usually caused by lying on your back or side for a long time. Here are some ways to correct the flat head:

1. Let the baby change more postures: Try to let the baby sleep in different postures, such as supine, prone, sideways, etc. Reduce the pressure and friction on the head.

2. Use special pillows: There are some pillows specially used to correct the flat head on the market, which can help disperse the pressure on the head and promote the normal development of the head. When choosing a suitable pillow, you should pay attention to the moderate size and hardness, not too soft or too hard.

3. Head massage: Give your baby a gentle head massage every day, which can promote blood circulation and lymphatic flow and help relieve head swelling and pain.

4. Ask a doctor to help correct it: If the baby's flat head is serious, none of the above methods can be effectively improved. It is recommended to consult a doctor in time, and physical therapy or other treatment methods may be needed to correct the flat head.

It should be noted that for newborns, it is not recommended to use any hard objects to correct the flat head, because the skull has not completely healed. At the same time, parents should also pay attention to observe the baby's head and find and deal with problems in time.
