Poor Baby - Update!
Yesterday we learned the exercises for Amelia's little head condition (congenital torticollis). Sure enough as soon as we got there Rachel said she definitely had it, which broke my heart. Deep down I was hoping we'd get there and she'd say - "oh she doesn't have it" or "she hardly has it at all." Good news, it's not that bad, but the bad news is she really does have it. The exercises are exactly what I had read on the Internet. I now know how much tension to put on her head though. She doesn't like it and screams/cries when I'm doing it (every diaper change) but I know it's better than her having tight neck muscles. We should be seeing improvements within a month. Ooh, a month seems so long, but I know it's really not that long. That's the news on my baby girl - thought I would share a little update on her.

Poor little one! Glad to hear it's not too bad, though. And by the time she's old enough to remember it, will the condition still exist?
