Learn About Plagiocephaly
Plagiocephaly, or “flat head syndrome,” is a common condition in infants caused by pressure on one part of the head. If you’ve noticed changes in your baby’s head shape, you’re not alone—and it’s okay to have questions. At Perfect Noggin, we’re here to support you with trusted information, helpful resources, and guidance as you explore ways to care for your baby’s development.

"We have come to the end of our PN journey at almost 5 months because little dude officially has mastered rolling back to belly and does so constantly in his crib and whenever I try to put him in it under his mobile too. I so wish we had found it sooner but the progress/results we had were phenomenal. Thank you SO much Dr. Rogers for creating such a wonderful product. We started at 15.5 weeks and stopped at 20 weeks. He still has some moderate plagiocephaly so we are getting a scan this week at Hanger to see what our numbers are and go from there (hopefully we can avoid helmeting) but I know we would have been at severe for sure had we not discovered the PN."

"I just wanted to share a comparison picture for anyone on the fence about trying the Perfect Noggin. My son started using it at 11 weeks old after his pediatrician had concerns about his head shape. He instantly started sleeping longer stretches and actually seemed more comfortable sleeping in the PN. At 19 weeks old he started rolling so we quit using it. Lucky for us his head shape looked great! Time has passed and he is now 7 months old. I still find myself taking pictures of his head to compare before he started the PN. The first picture is before using the PN and the second is today. I am so grateful I found this group and gave the PN a try. Dr Rogers and his wife Wendy are such wonderful people! They truly care and want to help families."

"Just wanted to post my three DAYS progress… Not only that we are seeing an improvement already but I have a different child since PN came in the post. My son is 9 weeks old and he never ever slept well. He used to stay awake for 4-6 hours at a time and not sleep more than 1-2 maximum 3 hours, no matter what we did. We had to try and calm him down for at least 30min every single time whilst picking him up many times. I was petrified waiting for PN thinking he will not accept sleeping in it. Last night he slept for 6 hours for the first time. Every time I put him down for a nap, he goes to sleep rightaway. No crying. Trust me, I feel like crying saying that our life has changed since I opened that parcel. I am so excited for the final result and forever grateful to dr Rogers for creating this product."

"Had to share how great our little girl (9 weeks old) is doing since using the PN! We noticed her plagiocephaly around middle of November and started doing more tummy time and repositioning then, so the first picture isn't even the worst it looked. Then we started using the PN on December 9th. Look at the progress in just a few days! I'm so thankful we found this group, Dr. Gary F Rogers, and the PN!"

"My little boy is almost 5 months & our journey with the PN is coming to an end as he is rolling front to back & very nearly back to front, often rolling onto his side. We started at 3 months and this is the difference I must admit I was sceptical at first but I would definitely recommend! I’m going to try & keep him in the PN for supervised naps where I can as I don’t want any progress to be undone."
