Is this plageocephaly?

Hi everyone!

I was feeding my four month old today and thought I noticed a flat spot on one side of his head. Can anyone else see this and if so, any ideas on how to correct? Pictures attached.

Thank you.

no pictures :)

if it is, it’s normally best left and will correct itself over time. Just pay attention to varying your baby’s position as much as you can.

Looks entirely normal to me.

like I said though, All you can do is keep an eye on positioning and try not leave them lying on one side too long.

No idea what I'm supposed to be seeing. Looks like a normal skull
