Guest guest Posted April 5, 2002 Report Share Posted April 5, 2002 Hi there & welcome to our group! You are lucky to have noticed your daughter's plagiocephaly (the " medical " term for the flat side, a.k.a. " plagio " ). at a younger age. You could still see very good improvement with repositioning. What side of your daughter's head is flat? We have had several sleep positioner products mentioned in here over the past couple of weeks. I see you also just rec'd a good recommendation. Check out this link for some helpful repositioning tips: http://www.plagiocephaly.org/support Welcome again to the group - Best of luck with repositioning! Please let us know how it goes.

Guest guest Posted September 19, 2002 Report Share Posted September 19, 2002 you could try the " Air Flow Sleep Positioner " By The First Years. You can order on line or purchase at toys r us. It is the only one that worked for me because could roll out of the others. It has these large cylinders that at hard so she can't crush them or move. You just have to make sure that both sides are adjusted close together so the baby can't move her hips.
