There is a very simple exercise, would an IBCLC be allowed to show it to 
mom?

Frankly this is why I went on from RN/IBCLC to get my NP.  I was tired of 
trying to explain to drs what was needed.

Personal note: my first granddaughter had torticolis (1981) and dr 
instructed mom to always lay her down (prone back then) so that side was 
down.  Of course, baby promptly turned her head :-)  At 7 mo I insisted mom 
take her to Children's Hospital of Philadelphia because it wasn't any 
better.  Ortho quickly agreed that she had torticollis, sent us up to PT to 
be taught exercise.  He grumbled about GPs waiting too long to refer babies! 
My daughter did the exercise faithfully on a very annoyed baby (it's lots 
easier when they are newborn) and some correction was achieved.  Today when 
you see pix of her it is still evident in the slightly tilted face and one 
slightly smaller eye.  This was all part of the big picture that sent me 
back to school at 50 to get more magic initials  :-(  Should be a degree for 
common sense.  Also venting, Pat in SNJ
