How long does it take for a baby’s head to round?
Your baby’s head should return to an adorable, round shape anywhere between 2 days and a few weeks after delivery.
What is a normal baby head shape?
What is Normal? Parents spend so much time with their baby, recognizing an abnormal head shape can sometimes be difficult. We’ve found it can be helpful to see examples of a normal head shape before looking at abnormal ones. Normally, the head is about 1/3 longer than it is wide and rounded at the back.
When is it too late to correct a flat head?
After 14 months of age, we won’t consider treatment as the flat head syndrome treatment we offer becomes notably less effective. After 14 months, the skull bones have begun to harden and the growth rate slows dramatically, giving less opportunity for correction using a TiMband helmet.
