Hello - I've noticed my 14 week old's head is developing a flat patch at the back, from sleeping on her back. She also always turns her head to the left when sleeping, so I'm worried she's going to go flat on that side too. This one is tricky as I'm reluctant to move and risk waking her once she has fallen asleep - she just settles naturally to the side!
A. Does anyone have experience of this - a small baby developing a flat patch - and did it rectify itself as the baby grew older/rolled around more?
B. Does anyone have any tips on encouraging a baby to turn their head to the other side when sleeping? Preferably without waking them!!
