I took to a craniofacial surgeon yesterday for a 2nd opinion on

her plagio and LOVED him! We talked for a while and he took pictures

and said that since she is only 4 Months, he would like to have me

continue to try to repo her (along with the PT for her tort) for 6

weeks and then go back for a follow-up. I take her back on Jan

19th. We will compare her head pics to her head then and get the

banding process started if we don't see enough improvement.

I'm so happy I got a 2nd opinion! Thanks to those of you who gave

your opinion on 's head pics.

Who-hoo that is awsome news. I am glad that you were able to find a

doctor that you liked and so early in the game that you will have

plenty of time to make decisions and such.

Jen, good news! I think this sounds great and will work out well.

Did you check out 's pics in the albumns? He looks so cute in

his helmet (my opinion of course) and doesn't seem bothered by it at

all. One week down!

Take care,

Jules

Hi Jen,

Thats great! I wish you the best of success w/the repo over the

next month. You may want to consider getting a Bumbo Seat if you

don't already have one. That should help a good deal at her age.

Please be sure to let us know how the followup appt goes.
