Did your baby get a "cone head" during vaginal birth?

Question

If yes, did it go away? How long did it take to go away?

Answer

My daughter's went down a lot by the very next day. Within 5 days it was completely gone

Answer

Most babies are born that way because of the shape of the birth canal. My baby's went down the next day

Answer

My son was born 7 weeks early. He was sunny side up and his head was severely coned shape. It took around 3 months for his to finally go down somewhat but he is 1 years old now and if it wasn't for his hair hiding it you can still tell where it's not really normally shaped like a baby's head should be

Answer

All babies get conehead. It's just what happens. My baby's head was mostly evened out a couple of hours later and then fully round a day or two after she was born. Just put a hat on so it doesn't look so weird. Lol. Jk. But seriously, it's normal. My husband and mom and aunt were with me in the delivery room and they all said they thought my baby was deformed because of the shape of her head as she was coming out 😩😩😩 but it was perfect again almost immediately!
