[Baby Head Shape and the Importance of Early Consultation]
A baby's head is very soft between the ages of 2 and 7 months, and the back of the head can become flat due to factors such as sleeping position and sleeping habits.

This condition is commonly known as "plagiocephaly," "brachycephaly," or "dolichocephaly." Mild cases may improve naturally, but moderate or severe cases may not return to normal naturally.

In rare cases, this condition may be caused by a cranial bone disease (such as craniosynostosis), so early consultation with a specialist is important.

This app was developed to promote a new standard: "If you have any concerns, consult a specialist early."

[Recommended Use]
* Simple self-check at home
* Follow-up monitoring by a pediatrician, midwife, or public health nurse
* As a supplementary resource when consulting with a doctor
