New to group-need some advice

[Guest guest]

Hi ,

Welcome to the group. This is all very scary - I agree. Plagio is correctable. You're probably going to go through information overload soon. The site has a lot of info in the repo files. Repo is a 24/7 job. However, we have had quite a few parents with repo success stories recently. Let us know where you are located and maybe one of us is in the area and can provide some local advice.

I just brought my 3 month old son in to the pediatrician today for what I suspect is plagiocephaly. She was also concerned with the severity of flatness on rear-right side and is talking with a neurologist tomorrow. Any help on things I can do now!! I know repositioning can really help, but I have been having a hard time figuring out all the tricks. Please help or send any advice, I am so scared!!!For more plagio info

Hi & welcome to the group:

This can all be so very scary!! We have a ton of helpful

repositioning info in both our LINKS & FILES section. Your baby is at

a good younger age to gett correction w/repositioning alone, although

repo is a 24 hrs a day job 7 days a week & can be very frustrating.

Where abouts do you live? We may have a member in your area that can

offer local help.

Many of us, myself included, were referred to a ped. neurosurgeon to

look at our baby's head. I heard that & freaked!!! but it's very

typical.

Check out our DATABASE as well for helmet/band providers, it may be a

bit early to think about a helmet, but it might be needed in the

future.

For more info go to www.plagiocephaly.org/support.

Good luck, keep us posted.
