Re: Owen's DOC Band tomorrow

[Guest guest]

Hi Robin, You are starting Owen with the band at such a great age. I

know how you feel. I was sooo excited to start the process, but of

course I was also sad that 's little head would be covered with

a hard helmet! Trust me...you can still cuddle and kiss him. I always

look forward to and enjoy the hour a day that he has it off. Good

luck to you and Owen!

Let us know how it goes. It does take a little getting used to. I

had to get used to finding other places to kiss him because I loved

kissing his head. Now I set aside an hour each night to sit with

him with his helmet off. It's become a nice ritual and I get

my " baby head " fix.

Hi Robin,

I hope your first day with Owen's band went well. Please let us know

how you guys are doing. Don't worry about hugging, you get used to

the helmet, just kiss the top of his head, his ears, his cheeks, just

look out for the helmet head buts!
