My little guy is a warrior. We knew the next month or so would be hard, since he has two consultations coming up for his surgeries, but at his pediatrician visit last week, she noticed that his head looked a little different. When he was in the NICU they did a cranial ultrasound, but nothing was abnormal. We were referred to a specialist through CHOC with Cranial Technologies and met with them today for imaging and everything else. All in all, he has skull deformations that if left untreated, could result in brain damage, along with neck stiffness, plagiocephaly, and brachycephaly, causing one ear to move forward. Luckily, all of this will be fixed with a DOC band (little baby helmet) that he will wear for 10 weeks and then reevaluated! I'm so thankful we were able to catch all of this early and can move forward and now focus on his surgeries. He's a such a happy little fighter, but please keep him in your positive thoughts and prayers β€οΈππΌππ©π»ββοΈ #choc #cranialtechnologies #docband #helmet #babyhelmet #plagiocephaly #brachycephaly #spoonie #boymom #mommasboy #littleguy #mylove #nicubaby #5months #babylove #warrior #brixtonzackery (at CHOC Children's)
