Guest guest Posted June 13, 2006 Report Share Posted June 13, 2006 An Update: Tomorrow I am taking my daughter to Cranial for casting for her to get a Doc Band. I am so nervous- I need all the support I can get!! What can I expect at the casting? Do most babies scream the whole 10 minutes? Will anything calm her down? I nurse her- so I am not sure a bottle will do the trick. But I will certainly try anything! She is turning 5 months in a week. She will begin wearing band when she is 5 months. She has a severe case of brachy and a moderate case of plagio. I am hoping it is only 8 weeks- as Cranial estimated- but I am afraid it may be much longer. When people stare or ask you questions- what do you say and how do you explain this? I want to prepare myself when I meet people... Thanks for all of your support. __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 14, 2006 Report Share Posted June 14, 2006 We actually took our 5 old month daughter to get her casting done today. She started to cry when they started to do the sides. The bottle helped a little when she was laying down. But when they do the sides and back they can't take a bottle. It was hard seeing her like that, but I just kept saying to myself that it was for the best. It does go by pretty fast. I think it took us longer to get her cleaned up. Your daughter will be just fine, because mine is. She will get her DOC Band on June 27th, the day she turns 6 months. Good luck to you.
