[quote=Anonymous]My DC was early, had torticollis and positional plagiocephaly. We had a consultation with the helmet people at 3 months, they said he was borderline mild/moderate. His features were unaffected but his flat spot was pronounced. They advised us to wait, since we had time, and see. We had a second consultation, a lot of agonizing, and PT. He also had a huge amount of tummy time, was never on his back. We chose to forgo the helmet. At 1, his head was boxy and still a bit asymmetrical. At 2, similar but less so. At 4, his head is quite angular, but only very slightly asymmetrical. Not noticeable at all, even when his hair is short and wet. Years later, I no longer regret not getting the helmet.[/quote]
