Asymmetrical Crawling is a tricky one โฌ‡๏ธ

As much as all PTs would love for crawling to be โ€œnormalโ€ and symmetrical, we care more about addressing the underlying deficits.

Three things I always rule out: hip instability, visual deficits, spinal asymmetries. ๐Ÿ‘†๐Ÿป I think we can all agree itโ€™s worth catching these things early on rather than waiting.

Chances are itโ€™s usually rooted in muscular asymmetries such as a tight hip flexor.

Torticollis: this is often times the culprit. If your baby has a head tilt or head turn preference, research and therapists support getting it treated early. This is not a โ€œwait and seeโ€ thing. Find ya a good PT and treat the tight/weak muscles. ๐Ÿ’ฏ

Fun fact: we actually call crawling โ€œcreepingโ€ in the PT world. Crawling actually refers to army crawling if weโ€™re being fancy. ๐Ÿ’๐Ÿผโ€โ™€๏ธ

๐Ÿ‘„ Tongue Ties + Lip Ties are prevalent findings in babies with general fascial restrictions and torticollis.
๐Ÿ‘… There are 4 buccal frenula (2 upper, 2 lower). The 2 discussed here is the soft tissue connecting the gum and upper lip and the tissue connecting the tongue and floor of mouth.
โฌ†๏ธ Seen in post are generalized statements and every baby is SO different as is their journey with breastfeeding.
๐Ÿ’ก Knowing what I know now I would absolutely seek out a lactation consultant and a pediatric dentist to appropriately screen and decide the best plan for your baby.
๐Ÿฅ› A lot of babies have ties that do not in fact affect their feeding journey.
๐Ÿ‘ฑ๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ Some PTs including myself have been trained in screening for ties and can help address fascial restrictions, teach tricks on managing acid reflux during feeding, and conquer tummy time to promote gross motor development and orofacial development.
