Plagiocephaly thoughts?

I feel silly asking for your thoughts because looking at the group (I’ve just joined) and the photo that I have attached I’m pretty certain it’s quite a moderate - severe case of Plagiocephaly. Thoughts?

Our son is only 8 weeks old and I have been in contact with technology motion who can scan his head when he is 3 to 4 months old. You can’t notice anything from the front, but from the back and above you can as well as the ears being misaligned.

What I’d like to know is if people noticed their baby with a similar photo and it got any better? I have a cranial osteopath appointment this week.

Hey, so I would hammer the oesteopath and get HV to refer to physio. Try keep him off his head as much as possible. I also bought the perfect noggin (try Vinted) and it’s been absolute game changer! Your baby is so young so I’d buy that first then see how it goes and if you feel you need to helmet then do so xx

Agree with Aimée - get the Perfect Noggin, it's amazing and will work wonders on one so young :)

I had it when my little one was 4.5 months so I started really late but it’s made huge difference xx

Day out after c section

Hey,
I had an emergency c section 1 week ago I obviously don't want a day out right now but I have things booked for the Easter holidays so in 2 weeks. I was just wondering if I will be overdoing it if I have a day out then or will I be ok? I would still take it as easy as I could. When did everyone feel good enough to go out?

Period like cramps

Hi
I’m currently 33 weeks pregnant and I keep getting period like cramps I thought these were Brixton hicks but I’ve heard they only last 30 seconds ish as this can go on for a good time frame then go away and come back, they aren’t bad enough where I can’t do basic things they just feel like I’m about to get my period I’m jus wondering how normal this is? Baby is still very actively kicking xx

C section or natural?

I am a control freak and thinking c section is the least stressful route for me and baby… less complications during labour etc. whilst acknowledging recovering can be hard.
If it could be guaranteed no tearing or complications then I would opt for natural and kind of want to experience the feeling.
Then again could plan and go either way 😂 arghh!
Anyone else in this predicament?

Midwife check

Can someone remind me when the midwife visits you at home? Is it the day after you’re discharged? And is that the same on the weekend or do they not visit then? Thanks!

Owlet

Anyone else’s owlet pi##ing them off ?!?! It goes off 5/6 a night saying it can’t get a reading and needs a snug fit. My baby is 8 months old so moves a lot. It is driving me insane and I keep end up taking it off!!
