Hello - Sure hope you can give some good advise. Around 3 months we

noticed a tilt to the right as well as a flat stop on the right side

of our daughters head. She was fit with a helmet at the Mayo Clinic

in Rochester, MN when she was 4 months old. Has been out of a helmet

since January. Great results, not perfect. She is now 14 months

old, and I am still noticing a tilt (good ROM) and that the right

side of her face is slightly more predominant than the left (You

notice it most when she is looking in the mirror. We have an

appointment with her doctor again next week. I'm wondering if anyone

has had their child graduate from their helmet (Please note, this is

not a DOC band, Mayo has an OT who makes these cute little custom fit

helmets. Reminds me of a bike helmet) and then started again. Or if

you can recommend treatment for the facial problems I'm noticing.

Her forehead and cheek are a little more predominant on the right

side. I just don't want to miss our window of opportunity to correct

this before it is to late. I'm looking for any good advise,

suggestions, experiences, etc... so I am prepared for our next

visit. Not sure if I will be satisfied with the doctors response if

he tells us everything looks OK. I'm just being a concerned mom.

Thanks
