JONATHAN
Jonathan is an identical twin born 2 1/2 months premature via C-section. He had torticollis due to restricted positioning in Utero and his Plagio developed after birth. He spent 6 weeks in the NICU and was delayed in most gross motor skills throughout his first year of life (staying on tummy, rolling over, sitting up, etc). Physical therapy and intensive repositioning straightened out the tort, but the Plagio was pretty severe. Our medical community did not encourage treatment, but we chose to pursue it. We are very glad we did.
