Each time we layed them down, we'd rotate which direction we layed them so that they were getting equal times on both sides. Of course I can't guarantee that's why we never had misshapen head issues, but it might be worth a shot. ???Lizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01606570803094936934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7505095119232307325.post-50139611250097915342008-10-07T15:01:00.000-05:002008-10-07T15:01:00.000-05:00Claire had a flat spot on her head too...hers was ...Claire had a flat spot on her head too...hers was from having low amnio fluid and laying on her right side in utero--then preferring her right side when she was born. Our doctor suggested a helmet, and we were the same way--NO WAY!!! We have pretty much corrected the problem with positioning and stretching exercises (it took 3 months). One way when she's awake and in her bouncy chair or carseat is to position yourself to the side that you want her to face-- 99% of the time she will look that way to see you and have your attention. Also when you feed her a bottle or hold her, alternate what side you hold her on...it's amazing when we realized that she was ALWAYS in our left arm so that we had our right arm free to do things. Another good thing to try is a front carrier...Claire loves hers and it takes ALL the pressure off of their skulls. Hope this helps!<BR/><BR/>Sarah<BR/><BR/>PS. I get her pics done at JC Penney or Portrait Innovations--they are both GREAT with kids!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01543654519800360314noreply@blogger.com
