Re: question

[Guest guest]

Rosie,

Torticollis and plagiocephaly go hand in hand. The majority of plagio

babies have torticollis. So there is a really good chance that your

baby does have plagio. What confuses me is with plagio there is a

significant flat spot. Have you looked in the photos section yet? If

not you should, maybe you'll find a baby that has a similar head

shape to your baby.

I hope the 10 days go by really fast for you.
