Torticollis ...

Torticollis ... This sounds WAY more serious than it really is, but I think Christian has this.

It means he favors one side more than the other when he sits or sleeps or even lays and when you move their head to the opposite side, it's really tight. If you look in the pictures below in every one of them he favors his right side.

I noticed on Friday that his head is starting to flatten on his right side. The doctor also mentioned it to Chris at his shot appt and daycare also noticed this too. In order to make him not have a oddly shaped head when he grows up you just have to do muscle exercises and make sure he lays on his left side. Easier said than done when you can't control how he sleeps while I am sleeping at night, but it'll be good.

I learned this all by Nancy Holtzman on Twitter. For those of you that have Twitter ... FOLLOW. HER. She is amazing. She is my baby bible. So smart. Jennifer got my onto her. She is the only reason I joined Twitter and I am so happy I did.
