Re: A New Repositioning/Plagio Prevention Product

[Guest guest]

Deb,

Thanks for posting this! This product looks really cool, I hope it is

a big help in preventing plagio. I can't wait to hear your views on

it.

back in! A couple weeks ago, my daughter's (who is now 4.5 yrs old)

Pediatric Neurosurgeon contacted me, and left me a message to return

his call saying he was working on some plagiocephaly material. He has

known how involved with this group and plagiocephaly awareness I have

been for years now. I have sent him plenty of plagio literature over

the years since Abby's diagnosis.

returned from an AAP meeting presenting this product. I will be

going to his office next week Thursday to personally take a look at

this item to see firsthand how it works and will share my " review " of

it with the group. He has done case studies on his " sleep shaper " for

some time now and is confident this will really reduce the number of

plagiocephaly IF used early and consistently. Here is a link to the

product with more detailed information if you're interested. I'll

also add this link to our " repositioning " links section.

Debbie,

I am amazed by this product and think this is the best repo'ing item

I've seen!

I have a favor to ask. Don't know if you read my post today about

Jaden, but please do. I am very frustrated w/ his old pede, and

wonder if you (or your Neuro that invented this wedge) can offer

some advice on how I can approach him about how beneficial helmets

are and that they actually help reshape babies heads instead of

providing just a preventative measure against plagio? I am

currently printing off documentation and accumulating it in a file

that I want to present to him. I would love to find out the AAP's

reaction to this repo wedge as well. Any info you can send me my

way would be appreciated. Thanks.

A thought for the Neurosurgeon.... wouldn't it be great if he could

cut out a hole for where the head lays in the repo wedge, and then

replace it w/ that memory foam stuff, thus REALLY insuring that the

likelyhood of the head getting plagio with be less significant?
