Pillows to prevent flat head, slp sarong for few months, or if very bad can go hospital for treatment, they will give you a helmet for bb. But its not cheap. 1k plus..
Change head position occasionally when sleeping. Their head shape will still change as their soft spots not close yet until after 1 or 2 years.
Heard from my parent and relative about my cousin son also having this issue. She keep sayang in circulation motion, it helps.
Try to avoid pillows if your lo is below 1 year old as they can cause flat heads.
Gently massage his head and also as and when change side of his sleeping position
