Hi Denisha -

You shouldn't have any trouble with the clothes. Most of 's had snaps on

the shoulder or at the back and that allowed enough room to pull the garment

on over her head. You could also remove the band for a moment in the AM while

she is getting dressed. More then likely you will already have it off in the

PM while she gets her bath and takes her one hour break and you can slip the

jammies on before you put the helmet back on.

There are tons of great decorating ideas out there. I just used stickers and

changed them out weekly. Check out www.plagiocephaly.org/support - on that

page you will find a section that contains decorating tips.

Denisha,

In the mornings when I would be getting the twins dressed for the day is when I would take the band off for a cleaning. That way I didn't really have to worry about pulling clothes over the band. But if we were having an adventurous day and going through many outfits, it was really no problem just slipping the band off and then back on once they had their shirts on.

For some decorating ideas, chack out http://plagiocephaly.org/support/decorate.htm there are some really good tips there. Good luck on Monday and be sure to let us know how it goes!

I am wondering about two things: will I have to buy all new clothes to get them over her band and what is the best thing to decorate the band with. Pretty minor questions I know-the cast has been done and they say it's the worst so I've had time to think about other things. If anyone has some tips please let me know.Thanks so much!!!DenishaFloridaFor more plagio info
