Guest guest Posted August 9, 2008 Report Share Posted August 9, 2008 We got 's second band yesterday. She was in her first band just short of 3 months and we've seen termendous changes!!!! And to point out, her first helmet was traditional casting an this new one was the 3d scan. As it was put on her head, it didn't look as loose as the first one. Actually looked " tight " , I mentioned that all out loud. We did our 20 minute wait and then our clinician made the cuts around the ears and we were on our way. I stared the 3 hour checks as soon as we got home and there are real specific spots that look to be painful. The one we are most concerned with is in the front that looks to be digging into her soft spot. Every time I take off her helmet, the spot is there. Also, there is a long crease on the left side of her forehead. NOW, as for the long crease - 3 inches or so, CT says only look for pressure points. Well, this is an inditation of the helmet, doesn't this count? I wish I had brought her old helmet home last night, I would have popped that on for the weekend, but they kept it until the positive of her head comes in. NUTS! For those of you who have experience with both traditional casting and 3d scan, did you see a considerable difference with the helmets? Our first one was quite roomy and it would move a little on her head. This one, no such room available. I am going to plan on going up on Monday (our regular appt. is Thursday). What do you think is going on? Thanks for hanging on this long! 8 Months old, scaphy DOC band #1 5/15/08-8/8/08 band #2 day 2, not a happy mommy;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
