It’s cradle cap; and it’s quite normal. It usually goes away naturally but you can speed it up by applying oil before shower and very gently brushing the scalp during shower.

It’s cradle cap .. use baby oil for softens the skin ... while doing head bath just do a gentle massage with baby brush .. it helps

Try google cradle cap, it's very common for babies and will go away around 4-5 months.
