This is very strange but the little boy I am caring for at the moment seems to have this weird flushing whenever he is placed on his left side. Literally his face splits into two shades, one narmal and the other flushed. Its like someone has drawn a line down his face?
He prefers his right side but doesn't seem distressed by the flushing. It has happened 3 times in 2 days?
Any advice - I think we will take him to the GP, but just wondered if anyone know?
He was born @ 34wks - at 2.25kg now 37 wks - 3.61. Doing well on all accounts??
