Re: DOC band ? not to be a bummer but...Patti

[Guest guest]

Hannah was 4 mos at her first casting and I gave her a lollipop! I

also gave her watered down white grape juice. I thought something

different that tasted good might help keep her mind off it a

little. She still screamed, but certainly quieted down for tastes

here and there. The casting is the worst part of the whole

experience, but it's quick and painless. Don't forget your camera!
