Guest guest Posted May 15, 2007 Report Share Posted May 15, 2007 I'm not saying it can't be done but we banded because our son still had a flat head at 6.5 months and he was WAY to hard to reposition as he favored how he wanted to sleep. I am guessing you are wanting to reposition instead of band? I would recommend the band and do stretches (if needed). Good luck. lisa > > > >> > > > > >>> > > > > > >> > > > > >>>>> > > > > > > > >> > > > > >>> > > > > > >> > > > > >>>>> > > > > Hi Friends, > > > >> > > > > >>> > > > > > >> > > > > >>>>> > > > > > > > >> > > > > >>> > > > > > >> > > > > >>>>> > > > > First and foremost, the 'Plagiocephaly' group rocks! > > I'm new > > > >> > > > > >>> > > > > > >> > > > > >>> > > here and > > > >> > > > > >>> > > > > > >> > > > > >>>>> > > > > have been reading the posts for some time and > > definitely find it > > > >> > > > > >>> > > > > > >> > > > > >>> > > very > > > >> > > > > >>> > > > > > >> > > > > >>>>> > > > > helpful. > > > >> > > > > >>> > > > > > >> > > > > >>>>> > > > > > > > >> > > > > >>> > > > > > >> > > > > >>>>> > > > > My 8-month-old son has been diagnosed with moderate > > brachecephaly > > > >> > > > > >>> > > > > > >> > > > > >>>>> > > > > (flat-head) and will be getting the helmet sometime > > soon.
