I knew Friday nights and weekends you can hardly get your doctor let alone an appt. I had to take the progesterone pill the entire pregnancy and go for ultrasounds once a month. When Anthony was born in June of 1989 he appeared to be totally healthy and the only thing I noticed was his one eye was shut all the time. The doctor at first thought it was a clogged tear duct and treated him for that. That didn't work but during this treatment over the first weeks of his birth we noticed his head was still a little misshapen.
Most babies heads are at birth but they look symetrical soon after birth.
But when his head and face were getting worse at 5 months old the doctor ordered an xray. In terms people can understand this meant that the soft spot that most kids are born with was missing. Babies have these soft spots til they are about 2 yrs old. His face was becoming misshapen and so was his head. His eyesight would eventually be lost in the one eye and he would end up with brain damage and deformities of the head and face if he didn't have surgery to correct it right away.
