    My DS is 2 1/2 he has severe plagiocephly unfortunately I listened to the dr's who said his head would correct itself, as he gets bigger his hair will cover it, I even listened to the dr who said he had enough money spent on him already(he has other special needs), His head is still "wonky" it's my one regret,if I could go back I would get the helmet. Good luck to your children.

    If you have been on Plagiocephaly care, you may know me.

    Christopher started at 11months and 22mm.  Got down to 13mm after a load of chest infections. 

    It is a bit of a rollercoaster but it's worth it if you know you have made the right decision for your little one. 

    PM me if you fancy a chat.

    well we had the appointment, he had his head measured and he had 24mm asymmetry, normal is 0-6mm, moderate plagio is 6-12mm and anything over 12mm is severe, so it's quite bad, he is getting his helmet fitted on the 3rd Sept
