Guest guest Posted December 12, 2003 Report Share Posted December 12, 2003 Hi Donna, I have to say that I cheated at the end of Hannah's second band as well. In all, we really didn't see much correction from that second band so I didn't feel like a week or so would make a difference. I sort of felt like I need to " wean " her from it since she had it for so long! She definitely wore it the majority of the time, but I let her sleep without it the last 3 or 4 days. They said in the last two weeks we could expect 1mm correction at the most. I'll be looking forward to seeing your official graduation post! ,mom to Hannah, DOCgrad Cape Cod, Ma > Ok so as you all know Xavier has been banded for about 4.5 months and > he is graduating on 12/22.

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2003 Report Share Posted December 12, 2003 Hi Donna, I hope Xavier is feeling better soon! So glad he is so close to graduation with great correction. It's got to be so hard having only a few days left...I'm sure you just want to be done! You're almost there!!

Guest guest Posted December 12, 2003 Report Share Posted December 12, 2003 Hi Donna, You might be missing a little correction but the alternative is not an option. You wouldn't want Xavier to overheat during the night and really spike a high fever. I think you have found a good medium ground. Also, it sounds like he's had some really good correction and if this last spot doesn't come out perfect it won't be noticable. Go with your mommy instinct! Don't forget to post a graduation picture and let us know it's official!!! YEAH! What a great Christmas present. & na > Ok so as you all know Xavier has been banded for about 4.5 months and > he is graduating on 12/22.
