Hey Debbie,

Thanks for your's & everyone else's support!! I'm really glad that i

have back upS:)..yeah, Dr. D is really nice through he whole appt.;

you know it really doesn't bother me much BC he knows and even said

that his opinions really don't count...it's just that my hun uses it

(plus the casting appt.) against me (he gets persuade very very easy

by the public) & i really do hate that. I decided to go on with the

Doc band since she is a bit older (9months, 1 day; she'll get her

band, Oct 14). You know, it's just nice and worry-free to have a

guaranteed result, right?

This is exactly how I felt too!

You should be very encouraged by Kristi's post today. got

his DOC Band at 12 months and has already seen great improvement in

just 2 weeks!

Most babies are oblivious to the band. The casting is the definetly

the worst of it all.

You are more than welcome for our support! That's why we're

here . I am sure you'll never regret going ahead with the DOCband -

let us know when her band is in & how you all adjust to it. My Abby

didn't get into her DOCband til she was nearly 1, with severe plagio-

we were still able to get very good correction, so I'm sure D will

come out with a perfectly round head, at least darn near perfect.
