Guest guest Posted April 17, 2002 Report Share Posted April 17, 2002 Hi all, Well, we have 's helmet. Needless to say, he is NOT impressed. So far I have managed to keep it on his head for 45 minutes. He screams and tries to take it off. I distracted him with " the Wiggles " which is why he kept it on for as long as he did. Please tell me this will get better. I know most babies adjust right away, but my son has a mind of his own. I have a few questions: 1) Will the helmet disrupt his sleep? Right now he sleeps from 8pm - 7am. I can't tell you how much I want this to continue 2) He's sweating like a pig. How often should I take it off and wipe him down? He just seems so overheated. 3) When will the sweating stop? Thanks. Dana (mommy to ) Ont. ps. oh, FYI, an orthotist from Australia was present during 's fitting. He said that he has travelled all over the States learning about the molding helemt/band. He lives an hour from Melbourne. He was impressed with how the band/helmet was so accepted in the US as a form of corrective therapy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
