We have noticed since Brianna was a month or two old that she prefers to sleep on her right side. At her 4 month doctor's appointment we discussed the flat spot that has developed and agreed we thought it best to have it checked out by a specialist. We made an appointment with Children's Hospital Plastic Surgery Department to participate in the Plagiocephaly Clinic. It was an overwhelming experience. I myself, fearing there was something terrible wrong with my baby girl, spent a couple days crying, anxious, and worried about this appointment. Then to top it all off I had heard from friends that they have no bedside manner and they typically make you feel like you are a terrible parent.
THANKFULLY, the day went very well. No one was mean and everyone we met had great bedside manner. Bri's flat spot is considered severe but we're going to continue repositioning and doing more tummy time! We also are going to work a physical therapist for a couple weeks to make sure she isn't turning her head to lay on the other side for a particular reason.
So family and friends, please pray and think happy thoughts for us over the next couple months in trying to help our Bri Bri be the most beautiful and healthy baby she could possibly be.
More to come...
