A New Plagio Mom Needing Help

[Guest guest]

Hello Plagio Parents! I am so grateful to have found the website

before my daughter's diagnosis this week. She has been diagnosed

with moderate/severe plagio. No torticollis. She is getting fitted

for a cranial molding helmet tomorrow...so I am guessing in about 1.5

weeks we will begin a four month journey. I am looking for words of

wisdom/lessons learned from those of you who have already been

through this. Any pointers on how to ease the transition to the

helmet? Ideas on decorating? Moral Support? I live in Indianapolis

Indiana and the helmet is not the Band I hear so much about, but my

dr. says it is more of a full helmet. My daughter is four months

old and not rolling over or sitting up yet...she isn't much for tummy

time though I am working on it. Dr. says minimize time on back....so

please send me your ideas so that I can be prepared and can help

Jenna adjust as painlessly as possible (my dr. says it will be harder

for me than her....is this true?) What Kind of success rate have you

all Had. Thanks so much for your help.
