Congenital Muscular Torticollis/rolling issues with my 6 month old
My baby has congenital muscular torticollis to the right. She just turned 6 months old and can only roll to the unaffected side tummy to back using mainly leg power because neck is so tight. Does anyone else have similar experience? Also is everyone's babies rolling over now at 6 months?
I have seen GP on waiting list for paediatric physiotherapist but stressed about her milestones being slowed down because she seems to be getting frustrated as she's getting restricted in movement because of her neck issue.

Take her to an osteopath (one that is trained to work with babies) - you will be waiting forever for a physio but an osteopath can treat this. You will need to pay though. Worth it for easing her discomfort and giving her a full range of movement, I understand not everyone can afford it though.
Took my first son to a paediaatric chiropractor who helped him with stiffness, and my January baby started seeing an osteopath when he was 9 weeks old for tension too.
