Max won't leave the band on!!!

[Guest guest]

What can I do? Max won't stop pulling the band off. I don't know what to

do. At this point I am ready to just give up! I can't keep him in it. Has

anyone evr had this problem and found a way to stop their baby. I can't

stand that I have to keep saying " NO! " and making him cry. I know that it is

not uncomfortable, he thinks it is funny and that it is a game. When I put

it back on his head he laughs at me and takes it off again!

I am thankful that he keeps it on overnight but every morning when I go in

sure enough, there it is in the crib next to him or on the floor....HELP!!!!!

Keep trying Amy. The game wont be so fun, soon enough. Don't make it a big deal. Just pop it on his head and walk away. If he keeps doing it, don't put it back on for a bit. Give him no reaction.

If none of this works, you could ask your orthotist about a chin strap.

Good luck!
