Head turning preference and plagiocephaly - information for parents and carers
Warning
When your baby is born, labour can cause their head to become misshapen. This is normal and corrects within the first few weeks after birth. If you have noticed that your baby is developing a flat spot on the back or side of his head, it could be due to a head turning preference and a sign of plagiocephaly.
