Symptom #4: Unusual Facial Features

One way to tell that a baby might have Prader-Willi syndrome is from their facial features. It may not be instantly noticeable to most people but is fairly easy to spot to people that know what to look for. One such feature is that the baby may be born with eyes that are almond-shaped.

The shape of the eyes may not be enough to recognize Prader-Willi syndrome, but a mouth that appears turned down can be another sign. The baby might also have a thin upper lip and also a head that gets narrower at the temples. It is something that might take a specialist to notice.
