Hi mama thank you so much for these tips my son is three months old n his head is always on the right side I will most definitely be doing these exercise with him every day. Thank you and God bless u n ur family
Hi 😃, I’m so glad that you’ll be doing the stretches- I saw a huge difference in my son after two weeks. Just be consistent and don’t forget to do lots of tummy time 👍🏽. Thanks for watching ! !
I did it about two hours ago he started to laugh am making it fun for him.
@@lystrajackson1911 That's awesome! !
Thank you soooooo much❤
Hope this helps!
Thank you so much. Very helpful!!
I hope this helps your little one.
I know tummy time is important for the child to prepare them to start crawling. so they can move all there muscles.
Great exercises thank you for sharing them!
Absolutely! However, there are situations in which in addition to tummy time kiddos need individualized exercises and stretches to improve their development. Baby Z was so tight on his right side that he was not rolling over in both directions and is now delayed in crawling. These exercises have helped him tremendously. Thanks for watch and always commenting :).
@@mightykiddos madam I have one doubt pls reply mam
Hi @Masha Allah, what is your question?
Thankyou so much.
You’re welcome!
Thank you thank you thank you my baby doing same I am very worried now I do hope Allah correct that and help my baby
Glad to help. Just be consistent with the stretches and consistent when helping your child move both sides equally. When possible talk you your child’s pediatrician 👍🏽.
Assalamu alaikum
Hi my son is 4month old we r having PT appointment in next week.he is doing tummy time well and milestones r good.but he is having little flat head on his right side.may I Know how many months it took for your baby to get rid of torticollis?
The torso is so important. Can adults get this? I feel like one side is stronger.
Yes, adults can develop torticollis too. And after torticollis has resolved itself there is still a possibility that it can come back, therefor it is important to always stretch once in a while as a maintenance routine.
Bringing the child's knee to the head for the deep stretch doesn't necessarily mean they have to touch right ? It's just about facilitating a deep stretch up to what is comfortable/tolerable for the child...
You’re absolutely right! I’m glad you are clarifying that.
Should neck streching exercises need to be done in both sides? Or only in the affected side?
Yes, it is only necessary on the affected side 👍🏽.
Okk
What happen if my babies tortocolis doesnt get healed
It may delay your baby’s gross motor development. These stretches here are very effective, so they should work. How old is you baby?
@@mightykiddos my baby is 5 month now i had resonded when he was 3 months snd him having tortocolis iits very stressful he gets better for afew weeks and then his neck tilts with stiffness we keeo doing all the stretches and im not sure why it keeps coming back monthly ive noticed
@@31209jenny our PT explained us that it takes about a year and within this year there will be moments of progress, plato, and regress.
How many days does it take?
There is no exact “number” as it all depends on how tight your child is and how often you do these exercises. You should, however, be able to see an improvement within a month. Hope this helps!
for a mild to medium degree it takes 9-12 MONTHS of daily exercises according to our PT assessment.
My baby has really bad tortocolis and hes 3 months. Its happend twice
Oh darn! Have you seen a PT yet? With my kiddo I noticed it at 2 months but didn’t start intervention until he was about 5 months. I shouldn’t have waited. How is he doing with his milestones?
@@mightykiddos he struggle with tummy time he has a preferred side so when we do tummy time he only looks sideways with his head not straight up Im goimg to doctor tomorrow to see what they tell me. Last time his mom massage his neck becauE it got stiff and tilted to
The side and it helped but now againhe did it
Aww, consistent stretching will most likely be necessary. I am glad that he will be going to the doctors. Wishing him health and happiness 😘. My little guy was a little delayed I’m his gross motor development due to the torticollis.
But I can seriously tell you that the stretching helped a lot in addition to physical therapy.
@@mightykiddos do you recommend to
Take him my baby to therapy my pediatrician said yes but ive called 2 places and their extermely expensive my insurance doesnt cover it .. ive watched this video and not sure to just go with strechimg myself
@jenny Melgar it pediatrician advices physical therapist I would do as adviced. However, if it is too expensive I would try these stretches for at least 4 weeks everyday. If you don’t see any improvements, it would be best to contact a PT. And if you noticed that your baby falls behind on developmental milestones I would definitely get professional help.
These stretches really helped my kiddo and he is now on track with his developmental milestones.
Let me know if I can help you with anything else! Best of luck to your little one 🤞🏽😘.
My baby is 4 and half month old can i do that excercise??
This video is not medical advice, however, I began these exercises when my son was 4 months old. He was being followed up by a physical therapist.
