I went to the peditrician today for my 4-month check up. I weigh 16 lbs. 6 oz. and am 25 inches long. I put on 5.5 lbs and grew 2.5 inches in two months. Wow! Mommy and Daddy were still concerned about my head and ear today, and the Peditrician took a closer look. She said, "it looks as though I might have Torticollis." Torticollis? "A tightening of the muscle in one side of the neck", she said. The office gave us the number for an organization called The Alliance for infants and toddlers, 412-885-6000. (www.afit.org) They stressed that this organization provides physical therapy and early intervention for infants with torticollis. Daddy called as soon as we arrived home and made an appointment for an initial home visit on 7/30/2009.
