I don't think it has anything to do w/a c-section vs. vaginal birth,

but more to do with their positioning inutero. Jack's birth was very

quick, I pushed 3 times and the entire labor was 4hrs. I carried

both my kids very low the entire pregnancy. In both cases it was

even noticed on ultrasound at 18 weeks. With Hannah, she was so low

they couldn't even measure her head circumference. We had issues in

Jack's pregnancy and I had almost 10 ultrasounds and after like 17

weeks the techs were always remarking about how low he was. They

both had " dents " over their left ears, which the doctor said was

essentially an imprint of my pelvic bone and that any kids we have

will probably have plagio to some degree. A c-section wouldn't

change anything!
