Mr. Flathead

For the past 5 weeks Lance and I have been working hard trying to correct our little tykes flathead.  Torticollis and plagiocephaly are becoming more and more common among infants due to the SIDS awareness and making sure your infant is sleeping on their back.
We went in to visit our pediatrician when Bennett was a few days over 3 months.  From that point we were diligently attempting more tummy time and encouraging all interaction be towards Bennett's left side.
Over the past 5 weeks I can honestly say his range of motion and head shape have vastly improved.
Today we went to physical therapy to get baseline measurements.
The percentage for a normal shaped head is 0-4% variation.  Any variation over 10% is subject to a helmet.  Our little man is at 7% currently (which I'm sure he was >10% 5 weeks ago.
Our physical therapist is confident that if we help strengthen his neck muscles and continue left sided interaction he SHOULD improve and not need a helmet.
We will meet with PT once a week for the next few weeks.  Here's to hoping things improve!
