Re: New Prevention Method

[Guest guest]

I'm glad someone is trying to help prevent this! We'd love to have something for

the full-term babies at home, too. There's certainly a market developing and not

much out there to choose from. Best of luck in your endeavor!

to be used in the NICU to relieve points of pressure on the cranium while

meeting the guidelines in place for the prevention of SIDS. Any of you that have

had children admitted in a NICU that began to see the signs of plagio under

their care, we would love to hear your story and the prevention methods in place

in the NICU that you observed. I also welcome any questions that you may have

for us and will answer them to the best of our ability.

Yes. We most likely are not having another baby. Ow, I would love to

try something at home given both my full-term boys had

torticollis/plagio, I would suspect if we had another he would be at

risk too.
