Hi ,

Check out this web site. We have had a lot of members use them.

I would definitely stick w/the new pediatrician. :-)

I'm not a doctor but to me it looks like she has a combo of plagio

head shapes. You can check out this web site to see the head shapes of

babies with cranio:

Good luck and please keep us posted.

plagio. Do you know what she told me?? " There's really nothing to be

that a Dr. feels this way? I'm so glad I changed docs. Anyway, if

you could take a look at her pics I would appreciate it.
