Hi Jocelyn,

Your ped absolutely can give you the script for the band if he/she

is willing. They often refer to a neuro to rule out

craniosynostosis or just b/c they aren't comfortable w/diagnosing

but she still wasn't comfortable with writing a prescription for a

molding helmet (Hannah was her first banded baby), so we still saw a

neuro.
