The brachycephaly shown in the uploaded picture occurs in certain abnormal conditions. In normal babies a flat head spot called Plagiocephaly develops when a baby spends too much time lying on his or her back. It does not cause brain damage or interfere with development of the babies. Varying head position of a baby can help. If it does not improve by age four months, a molded helmet might be needed.
