Re: Band vs. Helmet / Danmar

,

Just a note about the wear lengh. It seems from the other moms I

talked to in the area that there were varying thoughts on the wear

schedule. My son had mod/sever and wore it for 3 1/2 months and then

finished. he still has a small flat area, but overall we are very

happy. One finished at about 9-10 months just like my son, but they

kept him in it for one more month at night, per the orthotists

direction (even though he was sleeping on his stomach). He wore one

helmet. THere was another girl and she wore two helmets and for

probably 6 months, she had tort and plagio. I think her case was more

severe. She was just about one when she finished. SHe was seen at

childrens I think. It was fun while my sosn had his helmet we saw

these other babies weekly so they weren't alone with helmets! But

each had good correction, all the parents were happy with their

danmar helmet/s.
