💛 Understanding Plagiocephaly (Flat Head Syndrome) in Babies — Every Parent Should Know This! 👶✨

As parents, we pay attention to every tiny detail of our baby’s growth — and that includes their head shape. Many moms and dads notice that one side of their baby’s head looks a little flatter or asymmetrical. This condition is called Plagiocephaly, and it’s more common than most people realize. 💛

A normal skull has a rounded, even shape. With plagiocephaly, one side of the skull becomes flattened due to repeated pressure — often from babies sleeping or resting in the same position for long periods. This is also known as positional asymmetry and does not affect brain development. 🌿

Here are some key things parents should know:
🍼 Why it happens: Babies spend lots of time lying on their backs, especially in those early weeks. A preferred head-turning side, muscle tightness (torticollis), or long hours in car seats/swings can contribute.
✨ How to help: Tummy time, alternating head positions during sleep (while ALWAYS keeping baby on their back for safety), holding/carrying baby more often, and encouraging them to turn toward different directions.
👨‍⚕️ When to check with a pediatrician: If asymmetry is getting worse, not improving, or you’re simply unsure — early guidance is always best. In some cases, physical therapy or repositioning therapy may help.

Remember — you did nothing wrong. This is incredibly common and usually very manageable with early awareness. The goal is not perfection — it’s healthy development and a happy baby. 💕
Let’s normalize these conversations so no parent feels stressed or alone!

Got a new doctor in the office and he identified many booboos on Miss Devin’s face.

Letting kids take the lead is the key with getting those requests and participation. This was our first session together and we were belly laughing by the time it was time to go back to mama 🩹 🧑‍⚕️

Monday spotlight!

Let’s give a warm welcome to our new Clinical Fellow (CF) Miss Sydney! She joins us from the great state of Pennsylvania.

One of the best facts about Miss Sydney is that her dog’s name is Potato! 🥔

She has such a big heart, warm smile, and is so excited to be able to serve our Kemper Therapy kids!

For those who don’t know, my son, Oliver, was what we call a “late talker”. As a speech therapist it was always fun explaining to people he couldn’t talk YET! This is a video of him right close to his second birthday. He was babbling and it sometimes sounded like he was copying sentences. It would be almost a whole year later before he would consistently put words together and he could be understood by others.

I share this to give families hope because now that kid asks so many questions I sometimes question how many random facts I don’t know yet.

If your child is at a similar level and you’d like to have an evaluation done for recommendations, let us know at https://www.kempertherapy.com/contact
