My LO is 6 weeks old and has always favoured sleeping with his head turned to the right which has resulted in him getting a really flat head on the right hand side at the back and it looks really unsymmetrical. I am really worried it's going to get even worse as no matter how much I turn him he always goes back to that side. I have also tried tipping the moses basket over a bit to encourage him onto the other side but that doesn't work either. At the moment I have started putting him down on a V shaped cushion on the sofa so that he lays with his head straight, but obviously I can only do this during the day when I can watch him. When he's in his moses basket I have no control over how he lays as he just moves back into his favourite position. I have spoken to the HV and doc about it and they seem uninterested and said it 'should' sort itself out by the time he's about 18 months old, but what if it doesn't? Does anyone have any experience of this?
