Re: Did not even notice he graduated!

[Guest guest]

Congratulations, Stacey. That is wonderful and gives me a little hope. Tiernan was scanned today and will be getting his helmet next week. I told my oldest, 3 yr old Ethan, about it, and he's been asking me all day "where's Tiernan's special hat?" :-) Candace mommy to Tiernan, 6.5 mos tort, plagioStacey <oscaredwink@...> wrote: Our son graduated from his DOC band this week, which we are overjoyed about. He wore his first band for

8 weeks this spring, and his second band for 4 months after some regression. At 14 months, I really thought he would notice that he was unbanded, but (except for hating his FOURTH casting) he did not even blink an eye. This morning he did knock his head on the crib and looked surprised. I told him "band all gone" (he knows the sign language). He reached up to rub his hair and actually laughed out loud and looked shocked that it was not there. I am relating this story mostly for those parents that are worrying about how much their babies might be uncomfortable in the band. Evidently, at least for our son, it was completely unnoticeable! It made me feel better about the six months he had to wear it. Thanks for reading and all your replies on this board. We are so glad to be done with this head stuff. We are still dealing with the tort (came back a little when he learned to walk), but it feels like we are almost

done!Stacey
