Re: 1 yr old - Sydney Australia

[Guest guest]

It is not too late, but you should hurry. There have been a few moms

from Australia in the group, so I would recommend you search through

the old messages to see if there is useful info. Also I've added it to

your subject line to catch some attention.

Docs drive me crazy saying " don't worry, it will round out, ... " . It

usually does improve, but not completely. Also if it was severe to

start with it is unlikely to correct to an acceptable level.

My daughter is now 2.5 yrs. She wore a band while young and got good

correction, but her head is still not perfect. I'm sure it would look

horrible now it I hadn't done anything.
