Guest guest Posted May 12, 2006 Report Share Posted May 12, 2006 Welcome to the group. Are you going to NOPCO? It should not cause a headache. Infants can take a few days to adjust. Any red marks?

Guest guest Posted May 13, 2006 Report Share Posted May 13, 2006 Hi , thanks so much! Yes we are going to NOPCO. She doesn't act like she has a headache I was just wondering if it could cause one. She slept in in last night but upon taking it off this morning I noticed that she had a slight ridge on her fore head where the top of the helmet is open and the back by her neck above the neck part had a huge ridge! I took the helmet off until we can speak with NOPCO or Dr. about this. Any ideas? Thanks, Farra > > > > Hi all, what a great group! So much info here, thank you.

Guest guest Posted May 15, 2006 Report Share Posted May 15, 2006 Hi Farra, Sorry I didn't see this earlier - it was busy weekend in my house. What kind of ridge? Can you post a picture? It may be ok. Is it like a skin ridge/mark - similar to a sheet mark on your face when you wake up? or does it appear to be more than just fluid/skin? Was it really red? Did it fade over the weekend? na, DOC Grad Feb 04 Kiersten, DOC Grad April 06 www.thefilyaws.com/plagio/plagio.html > > > > > > Hi all, what a great group! So much info here, thank you.
