All the bones in her head are soft. She is still developing. When she sleeps does she favor lying on one side? In any case, I would not worry about this.
My daughter is 6 and she has the same thing since birth. Did you find out what is it? I feel helpless.. (Excuse my English)
Please don't worry. You have a healthy beautiful new baby. I think this may be your first child. We tend to worry over the first, and then we find that children are very hardy individuals and we become easy in our minds. I have several children and 12 grandchildren. You will find that as time goes by, and you get more experienced, you give up worrying unnecessarily.
hello,
by visual and physical examination of cheekbones ,doctor (pediatric & orofacial maxillo surgeon )has confirmed that cheek bones seems equal on both side even after that advised to do MRI to get more confirmation..
But everyday 1 thing always pitching in my mind when i look at her and i feel very helpless that i cannot do anything to let her be fine quickly as her dent looks more deeper (near about 1 cm2 in contour) where the paratoid gland stands.i dont know when it will be same on both side.
