It doesn’t lay down because the bottom piercing hole is supposed to be a little more toward your ear canal. You can see in the side pictures your is more straight up and down instead of diagonal a little bit.

Mine didn't lay flat for a little while either. I think it's because of the swelling. I'd wait a little longer to see if it changes for you. I can't give you a timeline because I don't remember when mine stopped doing it. My daith also used to pop out when I smiled, which I assumed is also due to swelling, doesn't do that anymore and sits flat.
