Has anyone ( in Brooklyn) had a baby with a flat head and needed a helmet?
I am looking into my options, wanted recommendations/opinions on someone who advises, as well as fits the helmet

I was told to take a picture from my sons head, birds eye view And see how round it is.
He had one side bumped in.
Wasn’t so bad when you looked at the picture. We chose to do nothing. Today at the age of 11, can’t tell a thing. I should take another pic and see what his shape is today.

We took my son to a PT in New Jersey Who was able to repair his flat head in 6 sessions manually. We were Bh able to avoid a helmet. Can't tell a thing anymore. He's 1.5 yr old now.

You cant fix a flat head with PT. Maybe you're talking about torticollis?

I noticed cuz babys head is literally flat on 1 side, on an angle. Baby fits perfectly in the groove of my hand when I give a bottle...you can see the flatness( its not huge but noticeable)
My pediatrician noticed it, and is keeping an eye on it.
I have an appt as well by a specialist.
Looking for someone who has had it and gone through it, wanted to know what they did...which place they went to for helmet, diagnosis or opinions...
