Left torticollis

My LO is 6 weeks old and has left torticollis (tightened muscles on the left). She only turns to her right. I have been to physio 2 times now and they taught me some stretches to do for. It is getting stressful that baby still prefers her right side. Any parents with similar situation? How long did your LO take to be cured of this situation? #firstbaby #pleasehelp

not diagnosed but my bb preferred right side too. so we switched his sleeping position so his left side is facing outwards (when he looks at us). we also make it a point to talk to him on his left side. it took a few weeks of practice and everyone (including my parents) to do the same.. now he’s ok with both sides. don’t worry mummy, give bb time to learn and change too.
