DS has just turned four months and not sure if I’m reading too much into the shape at the back of his head. Looking for what others think/advice if you think it needs improved?

Thanks.

I don’t see it tbh but talk to an expert if you think- we did and the result was a lot of physio which didn’t bother him. I’ll be honest I think it was all blown out of proportion because of how abruptly it stopped, with a cryptic comment that insinuated he should have finished before then. Don’t worry about it too much though op, congrats on the baby

Why are you making multiple threads about this? Head shape looks fine but your anxiety over it isn’t. Please talk to someone.

It looks fine, you can always consult your health visitor, or GO which can eventually refer u to a physio. Usually a flattened head shape can be due to the fact that he is lying constantly on his back, you can make him turn side to side sometime. Good luck and keep us updated.
