Your son is soo cute. has the same design on his band also!! You can see his picture under L. I'm glad you got things fixed. We had the same problem with s at first. And they added some more faom in his band also. I know i'm always looking at babies heads now too! I hope you and your little one have smooth sailing from now on out!!!

Thanks for all the replies.I am using an Ortho @ OU Medical center in Oklahoma City.He has added a small piece of foam to the piece that goes in front of his ear.It seems to have "snugged" things up and its fitting much better now.I posted some pics(), not sure if I did it right or not,apologies if I didn't.So glad to have someone to share this with!Everywhere I go I look @ babies heads and wonder why I never heard of(or noticed) this before!Thanks for listening.> Does the facility have the scanner?
