Guest guest Posted January 29, 2002 Report Share Posted January 29, 2002 HI, everyone, I'm new to this group, just signed up because I have a 5 and 1/2 mo. old who has a lopsided head! I've been mentioning it to my family prac. doc. for as long as I've been noticing it, and she keeps saying not to worry about it. People keep noticing it and I'm getting worried, but don't want to be too overanxious since she is so laid back about it, she says it will go away when he is sitting up more and moving around more. We've always laid him on his back to sleep like good parents, and he's always wanted to turn his head to one side, we tried alot of things, like blanket rolls, etc, but he always managed to scootch the way he wanted to. He turns his head the other way without any trouble that I've noticed anyway, just prefers to turn it the one way. Should I press my Dr. for a referral, or is there a chance it will reverse itself. I don't want him to wear a helmet unless he really needs it, I guess, and am afraid if I go to a specialist that's automatic. Any advise?
