Flat Spot on Back of Head

Emily

Does anyone else’s baby have a small flat spot on the back of their head? It’s not too bad, but I am so worried about it and someone made a comment about it today, which made me so mad! Our pediatrician said that this is a side effect of “back is best”/sleeping on back. We do all the things to help with it - repositioning, tummy time, holding baby more often. She is strong and can hold her head up really well, so even if we reposition at night, she still moves it in whatever direction she prefers at night. I am so worried about it! Any advice or anyone else have this problem?
