Answered prayers
Stryker's skull x-ray came back completely normal! The pediatrician informed us that positioning would be beneficial in shaping his head. We return to the pediatrician in about 3 wks (4 month check-up) & would be assessing it again to determine if something else should be implemented. Today was our first physical therapy appt. She was absolutely wonderful! The physical therapist was extremely optimistic about his neck & head shape. Stryker does not have torticollis. His upper trapezius on the right side is tight. Stretches are performed 4-6 times per day to help correct this problem. As far as his head shape, she offered several suggestions on positioning. She also told us about her daughter who had this same issue & has turned out with a beautiful round head. Stryker is definitely a show-off. He rolled from his tummy to his back twice for her! The old saying about God putting people in your path of life is true. This PT was someone that I did a short clinical with at the hospital. She was just as helpful & knowledgeable as I remembered. Not every problem is big but when it is your child it's always a big deal. Thank you for all your thoughts & prayers for our little boy.
