Kady's ped appt (no referral)

[Guest guest]

Well, we went to the new peds today. He gave the expected speech

about flat heads being normal and the baby rounding once rolling and

masking w/hair. He did say, however that her's was the worst case

he'd seen. He said none of their patients were in bands. He pretty

much ruled out craniosynthesis (sp) except for the fact that she has

been spitting up like crazy. He said that if I'd like, he could call

for a catscan and x-ray to ensure the skull hasn't fused or something

like that. But they'd have to sedate Kady. I have to go back in 3

weeks for her shots, so I agreed to wait it out and see if there is

any improvement.

So, I have a few questions if anyone could answer them for me:

Did your baby spit up excessively before treatment?

Did your baby's head change from a more one sided flatness to a

complete back flatness?

Did you have to get a catscan or head x-ray? Would that be the

referral to the neuro?

Thanks in advance! I have pictures of Kady in a folder here under

photos. She is 16 weeks old and we first noticed the mishapen head

around 6-10 weeks.
