Guest guest Posted December 20, 2002 Report Share Posted December 20, 2002 I wouldn't just call it luck Jodi! You listened to your mommy instincts and moved quickly. Even though we started at 5 months, I wonder if I should have just listened to my instincts and banded Dane at 2 or 3 months. He probably would have been in it half the time. Luckily we lived 15 minutes away and he was never bothered by it anyhow! Still got about 95% correction. You started at a great time. You also are a HUGE credit for putting the ball in motion for that! > I didn't realize how close he was to him outgrowing it last time we saw > her.
