Guest guest Posted September 16, 2002 Report Share Posted September 16, 2002 Hello, Breanna is now only 9 months old so I don't know about outgrowing them completely yet but I do know that when she gets new shoes she uses them until she grows into the shoes better then I remove them. Sincerely, & Breanna tiede2002 wrote:Have you all been using the plastizote insert in the shoes indefinately? We got a new pair of shoes today (size 2) and the plastizote looks a little awkward in them now. The Physicians' Assistant told me that the kids usually outgrow the plastizote around this time (15 months). What has your experience been with this?

Guest guest Posted September 16, 2002 Report Share Posted September 16, 2002 , What a great idea! I never thought to do that! Can you tell me...does Breanna blister when you take the plastizotes out? We have such problems with blistering (even at 15 months!). Amy On Mon, 16 Sep 2002 19:50:10 -0700 (PDT) Janusz wrote: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted September 18, 2002 Report Share Posted September 18, 2002 I'm glad you asked this question, I have been wondering the same thing! We are going to get new shoes next week. This pair one of the shoes came unglued from the sole. Has anyone ever had that to happen? I took it to a shoe cobbler and he stitched it temporarily. actually hasn't outgrown his shoes, but will before his next scheduled appointment. I'm just not sure how long this stitch is going to last and I definitely don't want to be without shoes! We've just kept the plastizode because it's such a long drive back and also if it wasn't there I think I would have to buckle and tie his shoes a lot tighter.

Guest guest Posted September 18, 2002 Report Share Posted September 18, 2002 That's a good idea, I might have to try that also! Have you ever had to put it back in? And, if so, what do you put it back in with? Pam and (8-12-01) Have you all been using the plastizote insert in the shoes > indefinately?

Guest guest Posted September 18, 2002 Report Share Posted September 18, 2002 Pam, 's plastizote did come unglued earlier in the year. We had such a hard time getting it back on we actually had to pay for new shoes from Iowa City (we were in Florida for 4 months and 's doc is in Minneapolis). That was when she was 7 or 8 months old and we were having real problems with blisters. No one seemed to understand how the plastizote was supposed to work in the shoe so we got the Iowa " professionals " to do it for us. Now that she's older, her skin has toughened up and we don't have nearly the blistering problems we used to. I think we'll leave the plastizote in and at some point try it without when she's beginning to outgrow the shoes. Best of luck with your little one. We will be leaving again for ville, Florida (for 2 months) and I won't have my computer. So I'll just give you all an update when we return in December.

Guest guest Posted September 18, 2002 Report Share Posted September 18, 2002 Amy, Jakob has been out of the brace for a year now. I always left the plastizode insert in his shoes. I guess it didn't occur to me to take it out I know with ours, it did come loose on one edge a few times, but I glued it back in with craft glue. tiede2002 wrote: > Have you all been using the plastizote insert in the shoes > indefinately?

Guest guest Posted September 21, 2002 Report Share Posted September 21, 2002 Hi Amy, All of the shoes we have gotten for have always had the plastizode in them, we got all of her shoes in Iowa. She is now 2 1/2 and still has plasizodes in her shoes. Holly and plastizote insert >Have you all been using the plastizote insert in the shoes >indefinately?
