This softness, however, makes the skull highly susceptible to external pressures. Key factors contributing to plagiocephaly include:<\/span><\/p><p><b>Supine sleeping:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Sleeping on the back is the single most significant contributing factor. When a baby consistently favours turning their head to the same side while sleeping, that area flattens.<\/span><\/p><p><b>Torticollis (Wry neck): <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is a condition where neck muscles are tight or imbalanced, causing the baby to hold their head tilted to one side and turned to the other. If a baby has torticollis, they can only rest their head in one position, rapidly accelerating the development of a flat spot.<\/span><\/p><p><b>Limited time off the back:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Increased use of car seats, swings, and bouncers keeps the baby on their back, extending the time the soft skull is under pressure.<\/span><\/p><p><b>In-utero constraints: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In some cases (such as multiple births or a crowded uterus), the baby\u2019s head position before birth can already cause a degree of flattening.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5b4fda7b elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"5b4fda7b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Early intervention: Prevention and repositioning\n<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4ed6093e elementor-widget-divider--view-line elementor-widget elementor-widget-divider\" data-id=\"4ed6093e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"divider.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-divider\">\n\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-divider-separator\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4c47734c elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"4c47734c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\">\n\t\t\t\t<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first three months of life are critical for prevention and simple plagiocephaly treatment. The skull is growing fastest during this period, and simple changes can be highly effective:<\/span><\/p><p><b>Tummy time:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> This is the most essential preventative measure. During the day, brief, supervised periods of Tummy Time help strengthen your baby&#8217;s neck and shoulder muscles while also crucially relieving pressure from the back of the head.<\/span><\/p><p><b>Counter-positioning (Repositioning therapy): <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Consciously change the baby\u2019s head when sleeping or lying down. For instance, if the baby favours looking right, place stimulating toys or objects on the left side of the crib or room to encourage them to turn their head away from the flattened side.<\/span><\/p><p><b>Vary carriers: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Limit the time spent in restrictive equipment like car seats and swings.
