Guest guest Posted June 6, 2002 Report Share Posted June 6, 2002 Hi, I am new to the group but heard you could all answer the million questions that I have. Sydney was diagnosed 3 weeks ago by the plastic surgeon who took one look at her and said " there are some serious problems here " . This after I raised the concern of her head shape to her pediatrician who said " it is only cosmetic, her hair will cover it " . Anyway, the plastic surgeon banded her and said it would be at least 7 months. Isn't that kind of long? He said it was a long time because her plagiocephely was intrauterine in nature. Sydeny got her helmet yesterday and hates it of course. She is 5 months old and it seems so tight on her head. Trying to get it on and off, I feel like I am ripping her head off. How long will it take her to get used to it? She is usually a pretty laid back child who never cries.. I really do mean never, not even when she is hungry. The last 24 hours have been nothing but tears and screaming, is something wrong? Please help I am lost in all of this...Thought I was ready but I am not!
