He did go in for his one year well-visit and his head had grown since his last visit at 9 months. The pediatrician said his head looked great and that he could hardly tell that it had been so flat. Yesterday I completely forgot to put the helmet on after I got him dressed. I didn't realize it until I got to daycare. The teachers said the kids treated him like he was new.
