Is here anyone whose baby was diagnosed with ? scoliosis at months 2? then when I took back to see Gp at month 3 doctor said that its improved and I was told to take back baby at around month 6 if I see anything . Well, we could see that baby does not want to roll on tommy using her right side , however she just started to do it but it isnt as easy as the other side and also she is not able to roll back from tummy to back on that side, but she does amazingly well on left side. Also, when she is on her back and stretching her legs it is clearly visible a left deviation . She does not like to sit in her feeding chair within a few minutes she is pushing her chest out and start crying. She does not like neither her car sit or pram too. So, she was taken back to see GP about 1 week ago and I was told that we still have to wait for at least she becomes 10 months old because she is in the developing process and she might grown out so they will not refer her to a specialist neither to a physio but I feel that I need to do something.

I believe that she could benefit from physio sessions! Is here anyone who had similar issue?

baby is 7 months old today.

I don’t have experience of scoliosis but as a mother I would keep pushing until you are happy with the answer. Make an appointment with another GP for a second opinion. Ask to see a paediatrician or scoliosis specialist. If the NHS won’t refer to NHS services, I feel you have private health insurance for the whole family use it or find out how much it will cost to see an infant scoliosis specialist privately.
