Guest guest Posted March 2, 2008 Report Share Posted March 2, 2008 Hi, my name is Heidrun Benbrook, proud grandma of Aiden, age 15 1/2 months. My daughter does not have access to the internet, so I am the spokesperson. Aiden was first fitted with a Starband in late May and it did somewhat improve his headshape. In November he received his second band. It did not fit despite numerous adjustments. Finally at his appointment in January he received what looked to be a good fit, but at that point he simply took it off his head (it was very loose fitting, always spinning and pinching off an ear, eye, etc.). So, that was the end of that. His headshape is far from being rounded, actually we think he is flattening out more. At this point we are willing to go for the DOC band. As we understand it is not so easily removed. The nearest location to us is in Oakbrook Terrace, Illinois, appr. a 5 hour trip, so it will involve an overnight stay each time we are going up there. We want to be careful that that is the place we want to go to. Has anyone in the group had their babies banded at that location, or maybe the Northside of Chicago location? We have to get going fast on this, time is running out. His measurements are as follows and I do not understand what it all means: M-L from 12.6 to 13.2 A-P from 11.8 to 13.7 Right Anterior to left Posterior 13.3 to 14 Left Anterior to right Posterior 11.9 to 13.4 We appreciate any feedback, Thank you, Heidrun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
