Chrissy Teigen is celebrating her son being helmet-free after three months of wearing one to correct his flat skull.

The celebrity mum posted a video of herself cuddling her nine-month-old son Miles, telling him: “Happy helmet-free day!”

Miles had plagiocephaly, which is also known as “flat head syndrome”. It’s common – one in five babies are affected by it in some way – and it’s generally caused by babies lying in one position for too long.

Teigen’s fans congratulated Miles on his helmet graduation, and others shared how their kids were getting on in their helmet journey.

I guess you could say that’s a real MILEStone ;)

My baby gets one at the end of the month. A little nervous (me, he has no idea🤣) but I know it'll be worth it. Thanks for sharing Miles' experience!

And some shared the funny things the happened when their kids’ helmets came off.

When my nephew’s helmet came off, the funniest part was watching him realize all of a sudden it hurt to hit his head on stuff.
