Guest guest Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 I have posted before also on the issue. But i am doing again. My son is in his Starband since last 8 weeks. He is 10.5 months old now. His case is mild. He has flat spot on the right side.I saw some improvement in the middle back side, which gives better look. But I am not seeing improvement starting from back right side up to the ear. My son grew 7mm in the past few weeks. My OT is not hoping any more growth because of his age. His head circumference is 455mm. i am worried if he does not get growth it may not fix bact right AND WE MIGHT END UP TREATMENT IN 4 MORE WEEKS. i thought that head would pop out evenly in the back flat spot. aNY ONE EXPERIENCED THIS.

Guest guest Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 This is very common, Kat. The part behind the ear is usually the last to fill out. The growth is rarely perfectly even like you would think. For his age, another 4 weeks would not be unreasonable to try for more correction as long as his band is still fitting well.

Guest guest Posted October 20, 2005 Report Share Posted October 20, 2005 Natasha, It is not exactly above the ear. I am worried about the spot which is starting from back right side and ending at above the ear. Kat. > > > > I have posted before also on the issue.
