pillow for flat head?

if you noticed your baby was getting a flat head, what did you do?

He sleeps in the swing and swaddled so i can't really position him on his side. At night, he sleeps in the RNP swaddled. He's 4 months.

is there a pillow that can help? any other recommendations?

Bc of flat head, we took dd to a neurosurgeon and had an EI consult. The neurosurgeon said that we need to keep her off her back all at times except at night. In two months time, her flat head has almost resolved itself, and it was bad.
Yes it's "annoying" always holding her or doing tummy time, and not using the swing, but it's worked.
Btw - she did qualify for EI services bc of it
