2nd band debate

Hi Everyone,

I have a question regarding a second band and want to see if anyone has had

a similar experience. We were seen yesterday by CT (Averie's been in her

band 8 1/2 weeks), and they said she will probably outgrow this band in the

next 3-4 weeks. They thought she would get more correction from a second

band. The first one took care of her asymmetry and lengthened her head

some, but they think she will get more lengthening with a second band.

Then we saw the neurosurgeon who was very pleased with the results and does

not think she needs a second band, said that we have about 60% correction,

and that the remaining correction will happen on its own. CT told me that

the neuro typically doesn't see the need for a second band, and the neuro

told me that CT will often recommend a second one. It's very confusing! If

we get a second band, Averie will probably only be in it about a month

longer than she would if we use this one until she outgrows it. Any

thoughts, suggestions, etc. would be appreciated!
