Guest guest Posted March 26, 2001 Report Share Posted March 26, 2001 Hi Suzanne, Noah (5.5 months) got his STARband last Tuesday afternoon and has adjusted really quickly. Tuesday: He wore it home, but not Tuesday overnight. Wednesday: He wore it all day with frequent, quickie breaks and he wore it overnight...but he managed to take it off during the night. Thursday until last night: He wears it all day and night...and it is still on in the morning! Noah is a good sleeper and has a pretty regular feeding/nap schedule. None of this has changed with the STARband. He doesn't seem to even notice it, but I miss his warm, fuzzy head :-( Deborah and Noah > Our son, who is four months old, has been wearing the Starband since > last Friday. > > Last night was his first night sleeping in the band.
