My DS who is 6 months old has a 'mis-shapen' head. When he was born, he was fine, but this has developed over the last few months.
I think it's due to him lying to one side all of the time (my DD now 2 and 1/2 had this a little bit too). I have tried encouraging him to sleep to the other side, but it's not helped. I've taken him to the doctors, who has said this is fine and sometimes happens (although admitted in DS case it is quite severe), and that it will rectify itself once he spends less time lying down.
Someone has mentioned to me that there is a 'cap' that can be worn, that will re-shape the childs head. My doctor said this is a complete waste of time. Does anybody have any experience of this? Either using the cap, or that their childs head shape returned to normal?
Sounds silly, but as my DD only had it mildly, and now has long hair, it's hard to tell if her head shape is back to normal.
Hope this doesn't make DS sound like a freak! I think he is a gorgeous little thing anyway
