Prior research documents parents\u2019 experiences of navigating diagnosis and treatment, highlighting value in connecting with other families to share insights and support. However, little is known about specific practical and emotional guidance that parents themselves would offer to others facing similar circumstances. To address this gap, we used reflexive thematic analysis to examine pre-existing qualitative interview data from 22 parents. Six themes were generated:\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Stay Informed and Make Informed Decisions<\/jats:italic>\n                    ;\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Prepare for the Journey: Practically and Emotionally<\/jats:italic>\n                    ;\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Build a Support Network<\/jats:italic>\n                    ;\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Advocate with Confidence<\/jats:italic>\n                    ;\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Care for Yourself Along the Way<\/jats:italic>\n                    ; and\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">Find Strength in Positivity and Growth<\/jats:italic>\n                    . Findings identify condition-specific, actionable advice that complements clinical guidance. They point to persistent gaps in routine care, including both practical information and psychosocial support, and show how peer insight reduces uncertainty. Embedding parent advice in family-centred care from the outset, via structured resources and facilitated peer support, can deliver timely, experience-based guidance for decision-making, preparation, advocacy, and self-care. This, in turn, strengthens parents\u2019 confidence and resilience across their craniosynostosis journey.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/13674935261476741","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,12]],"date-time":"2026-08-12T07:18:46Z","timestamp":1786519126000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Lived experience as guidance: A qualitative study of parental advice for craniosynostosis"],"prefix":"10.1177","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0009-5613-3818","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Taylah P.","family":"Silvestri","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Adelaide University"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9720-7117","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Amanda J.","family":"Osborn","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Adelaide University"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-9547-9995","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Rachel","family":"Roberts","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Adelaide University"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,8,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_8_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/s41572-025-00607-4"},{"key":"e_1_3_8_3_1","volume-title":"Parameters of Care for Evaluation and Treatment of Individuals with Cleft Lip\/Palate and\/or Other Craniofacial Differences","author":"American Cleft Palate Craniofacial Association","year":"2024","unstructured":"American Cleft Palate Craniofacial Association (2024) Parameters of Care for Evaluation and Treatment of Individuals with Cleft Lip\/Palate and\/or Other Craniofacial Differences.
