Just curious what you ending up doing about it. Right now our pediatrician is talking about physical therapy and possibly a helmet. How severe was your child's flat spot? And did your child get the torticollis because of the hematoma? @mrsmccormick just looking for someone to relate to and talk to you because I can't find anyone that can relate to this issue
My son had torticollis and plagiocephaly. He did not have a cephelohematoma. We did the physical therapy for the torticollis and a helmet for his flat spot. The physical therapy I don't feel did us any good. Cost us a ton of money and I don't feel like it helped. He changed so much on his own just with growing and hitting milestones. Don't take my word for it though. I have heard many physical therapy success stories. Each child's case is totally different.
I am so happy that we chose to get my son a helmet. It was expensive also but so worth it! My baby boys head is perfect!
@mrsmccormick thank you. My son got in a funny position during labor. He was born healthy though & naturally. @dmgraham06 thank you. Yes I think we'll have to get the helmet because his case is moderate to severe. Did you use doc band?

@mrsmccormick also do you know how your child got the hematoma? Like what occurred during your birth?

@mamalotus, we did not have a doc band. It was a full helmet. It was the only thing offered to us.
