To be concerned about 3 months old flat head?

[OneFlowerBed]

My 3 months old has developed a flat spot on his left side. Is the mimos any good, quite pricey for what it is, but does it do the job? Unlike other pillows that only advertise prevention, this one says that it actually corrects flat head?

If you're in the uk then I'd recommend you speak to your health visitor first. Secondly, should a 3 month old use a pillow? I'm not convinced they should, but I could be wrong.

You already have a thread on the go on this subject. Its had responses.

Definitely ask HV. I knew lots of babies with flat spots (more common in twins and I made friends with lots of other twin parents) but only one set actually needed treatment, the others all just resolved themselves.

I use the love nest cushion from boots £19.99 but only use it for his naps during the day. I think that's helped round the back of his head

We had the Mimos, it was recommended by my DS's paediatrician. It corrected his head (although it didn't seem too flat to start with) so I guess it was worth the money!
