I thought I would post a little update on Amelia's head condition (congenital torticollis). It's been nearly two months since we noticed she was holding her head only over her left shoulder. We started doing the exercises and she is so much better. I still notice when I hold her up over my right shoulder she favors looking over her left shoulder, but not always. When she's laying down, sitting in her swing or seat, she's all over the place and it doesn't appear that she's favoring either side at all. Yea!
On another note.. she's getting close to rolling over. She gets half way there and her little face can be almost buried in the blanket, but she hasn't quite figured out how to get on her belly. Not like she's going to like it once she gets there... I've been trying to do the tummy time a couple times a day and she hates that. I never did it with Landen, but with her little neck muscles being different than Landen's, I thought I should at least try once in awhile.=) She's also a scooter.. she'll be facing one direction, I leave the room and when I come back, she's almost all the way around to the other direction. She'd probably be doing even better if she could ever just lay around on the floor, but we have the maniac running around and it's not safe. =)
So, I'm glad to say we can pretty much put the toritcollis behind us now. Thank goodness!
