Baby can’t move his head to left

DS3 is 8 weeks old and it’s become apparent he cannot or will not turn his head to the left whilst lying on his back. When he’s on his tummy or on my chest he will, and when he’s asleep I’ve been able to gently turn it but when awake he just won’t. Is this torticollis? We are seeing a Paedatric physiotherapist but don’t have an appt yet and I am desperate to know what I can do in the mean time to help him as I really don’t want this to impede his development. I am worried about him developing neck muscles only on one side etc - especially as he is trying to roll but only to the right side.

Ah I see Smile he's gorgeous! So much hair!
Yeah looks like it's a little tight but he is well in his way - keep up what you are doing and I'm sure your physio appointment will also be reassuring x

Thank you!
