Re: repositioning tips-pic in photo file

[Guest guest]

The bulge is on the same side as the flat spot. To me it's like the

flat spot caused growth over the ear instead of on back of the head.

I am going to try to put pressure on it during nap time. Like right

now he's asleep and laying on the flat-side face downward so as to

avoid flattening on back. I have been cking him to make sure I can

feel his left ear(so I know his head is turned enough). This was not

sucessful this morning but he hasn't stirred yet and it's been about

45 minutes. I am hoping this may flatten it alitle bit?...

I think BF could have contributed as well, for the brachy anyway. I

didn't even think he had brachy until you ladies said something! I

just thought he had a small head. I better ck on him now, will write

later!
