Products to prevent flat head?

[Guest guest]

My son is 4 mo. old, and he's now starting to roll over. He's been on a

sleep positioner for a few months now, and according to the WARNING

messages, once he starts to roll over, I shouldn't use the positioner.

My question is, what are some other products that I could use to make

his mattress (where his head meets the mattress) softer? A lot of

these crib mattresses are soooo hard, and I am nervous about my son's

head getting even flatter in the back.

Can anyone recommend any crib mattresses or products designed to put in

the crib to prevent flat heads?

Thanks!

Hello. I believe that some people on here have used some thin

memory foam under the sheet in the crib. Also, you want to make

sure that during the day you do lots of tummy time and use things

such as an excersaucer or a bumbo seat (www.bumboseat.com) to keep

him up off his head.

Good luck.
