1. Get a bird's eye view of your baby's head
Get directly above your little one's head (not a position you find yourself in much, is it?!).TAKE A PHOTO. That way you can look carefully at it without baby wiggling and you'll be able to compare from week to week for changes.
Divide the skull into 4 quadrants by imagining 2 lines: one from nose to back of head and one from ear to ear (or from one ear to where the other should be). Ask yourself:
• Do the front two quadrants look symmetrical and equally full? What about the back two?
• Does the left half of your infant's head match the right in size, fullness and shape?
• Are the ears even?
• Does the back of baby's head look significantly less full and round than the front?
Taking a quick look at this little lady, you'll see that her right back quadrant is much less full than her back left. The right front quadrant has a different shape than the front left. Her right ear is shifted forward compared to her left.
