You : You should call your child's doctor and have him examined. If he has always held his head to one side, it could be something common such as congenital torticollis or "wryneck". This is caused by stiffening of neck muscles due to the positioning of the head in the womb and can be improved over time with some simple exercises your doctor or a physical therapist can show you. I attached a website with information below. If this is something new that you have just noticed, then you should call his doctor right away to rule out a more serious cause. Good luck!

Head position: It is hard to know what, if anything, is happening. Have the baby examined by a pediatrician rather than having a bunch of strangers who can't see the baby guess about it.
