Guest guest Posted January 10, 2001 Report Share Posted January 10, 2001 Kendra, Yes, that does sort of resemble Sophie's head, but only, to me, her's is more flat, and less oblong(only the very back top is pointy). We just spoke with the ped. yesterday after having gotten x-rays for Sophie. Just as I thought, everything is fine developmentally,and also just as I thought, she said there isn't anything she would recommend doing, she's seen worse, and her hair will grow over it anyway!! It makes my blood boil. I told her I was going to see a neuro (whom I've had this appt. with for a month and a half,and was recommended by Cranial Tech). She then called me back with a referral of someone she knows. Not really interested in this person, as he probably has her same philosophy.

Guest guest Posted January 10, 2001 Report Share Posted January 10, 2001 Hold firm in your decision to see the Dr. that Cranial Tech. suggested. I think your assumption that your ped's Dr. friend would have the same opinion as her is a good one. Maybe not, but why waste your time if you have an appt. elsewhere? Keep him/her in mind for a second (third??) opinion if you need it.
