Re: Chance to help a coworker

[Guest guest]

I, too wish I had had someone like you that had warned me about my daughter's

head- I noticed it at 2.5 to 3 mos, but the pediatrician kept brushing my

concerns aside; SHE kept telling me that it would round out as well. I would

recommend that your friend go to get a consult anyway (CT is free for a

consult), and see what the " experts " say. My daughter's never rounded out

fully, and the pediatrician waiting until she was 12 mos before she took me

seriously again. Please tell your friend not to wait that long- it only takes

longer to fix!!

and I work closely on several cases, we took yesterday to get caught up. Her son

is now 3 months old and she mentioned that he had tort and was getting PT

through Infants and Toddlers (early intervention services). I mentioned to be

careful because this could cause a flat head. That's when she told me he already

has one, but everyone is telling her that it should round out.

on repositioning, the doctor we saw, and the two main helmet places in the area

(Star cranial and CT). I explained about the optimal time for a helmet. She said

she was going to look everything over when she got home and talk to her husband

about scheduling some appointments to be ready in case it hasn't rounded out in

a couple of months.
