Guest guest Posted August 30, 2010 Report Share Posted August 30, 2010 Regression, that is!!! We are done with the band, but still battling tort. My daughter sleeps on her stomach, but always keeps her head to one side. For the first two weeks, I would check her periodically and if she was in a deep sleep, I would reposition her. Yesterday, after her bath..when her hair was wet and I could really study the shape of her head...I noticed, clear as day, the back of her head on the left side was beginning to protrude...and her forehead on the right was as well. It is not a lot, by any means...but it's making me nervous. I began checking on her more frequently, and discovered that she's putting herself back into the position that compounds the plagio as soon as I leave. I have no clue what to do- I can't keep disturbing her sleep to reposition her. I'm already checking on/repositioning her for the first 3 hours at night. Short of putting her in a bubble until her soft spot closes...I have no clue what to do. We will definitely be more aggressive with the PT (which is becoming more and more difficult as she is entering an age where she is aware of what's going on and does not like it). She was in the DOC band for 6 weeks and is 6 months old. I would love any and all advice...or stories from those who have been through this. Thanks!
