new mom here

[Guest guest]

I am a new Mom and my son is 2 months our pediatrician noted a bulging forehead and flat right back side of his head-we are waiting for a neuro appointment. Any suggestions in the mean time? He is already rolling over from back to side and although I try and reposition him he squirms away from the wedge pillows and gets to his back. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Beck

Welcome! I think most of us in this group have been there. I have

a regular 7 year old boy and 5 year old identical twins girls with

speech problems.

One of my girls started talking around 3. She still has

articulation problems, but she talks okay now. My other daughter

has only recently started talking. I don't know where to even

categorize her. She can say some sentences, but she can't say many

3 or more syllable words. She has lots of articulation problems, so

even when she says sentences it is limited to the sounds that she

can say.

If your son needed tubes, it means he's had trouble hearing for

awhile. If he can't hear, then he can't talk. I had a friend whose

child had tubes put in when he was around 3. He started talking

within a few months.

It's good you have your son in speech. I'm sure the tubes will

help, and the speech therapist will be able to tell if anything else

is going on.

Hopefully, your son won't have any long lasting speech problems.

Good luck!
