Advice from our pediatric plastic surgeon: - First off, do as much tummy time as you can during the day. Good for strength, but keeps them off their head. - Try to get baby to lay on the biggest curve part of the head, so the flat part can round out. - Roll up a towel and place it inside baby's shirt on back to help prevent baby from turning to preferred side.Use mirrors/toys to encourage baby to turn head certain way. - If you constantly work on head position during the day, then you can just let them sleep however at night. We followed her advice and were able to re-shape his head without a helmet.
Head Shape?
My pediatrician noticed my Daughter prefers to sleep on one side vs the other, so only one side of her head is rounding out. I’m worried we’ll have to get a helmet because she HATES sleeping on the other, it’s a struggle :/
I was up all night repositioning her and need some advice! Has anyone experienced this? Will it start to round out quickly or is it a long process?
Any insight or recommendations would be so much appreciated!
Here’s my little babe Savannah! 💕
