Hi ,

plagio is moderate. She probalbly will have

to wear her helmet for at least 4 to 5 months. Her

helmet is fitting better now, but I am having trouble

keeping the pads they placed in the helmet from coming

off. They were like self-adhesive pieces of sponge

cut to the size needed. I've already tried super

glue, but that doesn't even seem to work. I just

can't wait until her head grows some more then I can

take the pads out and it should fit even better. The

physical therapist says I only need to come once a

month for her tort because it has gotten better. She

thinks will be crawling soon and will have

more range of motion and this will help her neck to

loosen more. Thanks! Talk to you soon!
