Cowlick from the band??

May 23, 2002

Hi Just last night after Myas bath and she was crawling around the

house and her hair had completely dried and we were waiting for the

band to dry I noticed her hair was sticking up where it has to lay

over top of her band in the front. I mean it looked so silly. And I

had combed it down and its not like she has a tremendous amount of

hair but it was just sticking up in that spot like it has to every

day to lay over top the band so its not all on her forehead and

getting into her eyes. My question is after she is out of her band

will she have her hair sticking up like this forever. Will she have a

permanent cowlick? Has anyone else had this problem. Any replies

would be appreciated. Thanks

Christi:

Abby had a ton of hair while in her band, so I understand what you're

describing about it lying over the front of the band. However Abby

never developed any cowlicks from it.

I would imagine after Mya is graduated & out of the band for

sometime, the cowlick will go away. Especially once she starts

growing more hair.

How's she doing in the band?

Thanks Debbie Im hoping it will go away after time. Mya is doing well

in her band. At her last visit they told me if she keeps progressing

the way she is then she will not need a second band. But if she slows

down at all or her ears dont shift the way they are supposed to then

she will need a second one. SO I am praying that she keeps

progressing at the same rate if not faster. So she can get out of her

band. But she dont seen to mind it at all. She has lately been trying

to mess with the velcro Im not sure if shes just curious or if shes

wants to take it off. I really doubt its because she wants to take it

off cause she gets so excited when its time to put it back on. Its

really funny to see how excited she is. Oh and you know the pooping

in the tub issue well it has returned. Ughhhhh I guess i spoke to

soon. She has been pooping in it again for the past few days. And

last night I had to clean and refill the tub 3 different times just

to get her washed off cause she kept pooping in it. And I even sat

her on the toilet and she pooped in there too so I thought she had

to be done. WEll nope!! Cause it just kept coming I was soo

frustrated. I will be so glad when she stops this. ANd I am writing

this in her baby book so she knows what a poopy girl she was JEESH!

Thanks for the reply. I hope Myas will go away after shes out of the

band. But shes still got a ways to go in her band. Shes only been in

it for 2 1/2 months. Her hair is just starting to grow so much and I

dont know what to do with it. ANd her hair is so completly different

from her sisters hair who has beautiful thick curls. And Myas is just

so straight and fine so any barrett I try to put in her hair just

falls right out. But anyway thanks for the reply hopefully its just

doing it cause its just used to going that way and when shes out

maybe it can be trained to lay down flat as well.

> Sara had the same cowlick over the top of the band in the front.

She's been out of the band for a week and I don't notice it any

more. One time when I took Sam and Sara along to a hair appt for

their big sister, the girl cutting her hair said that she noticed

funny growth patterns in a boys hair that she cut during his band

therapy. She said it seemed " spiky " and grew in all directions. She

hadn't seen the boy since he graduated, so I don't know if his hair
