Flat head
Jordana is getting a flat head. Its not too bad yet, but I want to prevent it from getting worse. I am afraid to put her on her stomach to sleep all night(although I told the daycare they can do it). She is 5 months old. Any suggestions?

Re: Flat head
I'm having that problem with my son. At my last visit, my pediatrician said to give him more tummy time. Or just more time where he's not lying in a bouncy or on his back. So I keep him in his Jumperoo and bumbo a lot now.
Hope this helps!

Re: Flat head
Just make sure that during waking hours she is sitting up as much as possible. At night there's no getting around it, but during the day, maybe holding her in your arms or in the baby carrier more often so she isn't leaning back on anything, like a bouncy seat...
