Hi Everyone,

I was wondering if anyone had a similar situation. We noticed this weekend that our 3 month old baby has one ear smaller than the other. I will be calling the doctor on Monday to ask questions. I know that he is still growing ,but we're concerned because the difference in ear size has become noticeable.
Any feedback is much appreciated!
Thank you.

What can I do next?

I would look at finding some who does cranial sacral therapy. This is a type of cranial massage that they can do and it may help to encourage growth if things are not asymetrical

Do you notice any other asymmitry (sp)??

That's all i can think that the dr might ask.

Good Luck i hope you get some answers and that it turns out to be nothing.

ears are not the same in size, shape they can be different. one can be longer fatter, wider.

Can mention it at next reg visit but yes does happen and normal

Hi M. -

I hope you got some good information from your DR. Hopefully, this will correct itself as you son is still so little and as you said, still growing.

I just wanted to share that I noticed that for both of my boys, their eyes are slightly different, a little droopy on one side. I don't think anyone else notices but me. My husband has one droopy eye too, but again, I am probably the only one who notices.
