adjusting the first weeks - Los Angeles Play group

[Guest guest]

Hello,

We went yesterday for 's sizing for his starband at Steller. He

did ok but I was a wreck. I'm very concerned about the first week or

so,taking it on/off, adjusting to it, sleeping, etc. It looks

very difficult to put on. any advice? still crys when I put a

shirt over his head.

Also, I live in Los Angeles on the westside and looking for

support/play groups for babies with plagio. Please let me know if

you're in the area and interested in starting one.

Best,

Hi -

It does get a lot easier when they start wearing it 23 hours and you

only have to take it off once or twice a day. How old is ? Is he

sitting up at all or in a high chair yet? If you can remove it and put

it on while he's in a high chair, or exersaucer, or sitting between

your legs, it can be easier than if they're laying down. You just need

to stretch the band open as far as you can, it won't break. I use the

side opposite the velcro to lineup the ear hole with my son's ear as a

point of reference, and that really helps get it on right the first

time. Good luck! I know it's harder on the moms and dads than the

babies for the most part. It gets easier!

My son got his DOC band on Weds of this week and has NO problems. he slept through the night right away, which he was doing and has not had any problems with redness or wanting it off. It has been easier than i thought to care for him and the helmet. It was hard to adjust the first day to how he looks and to holding him with a bigger head! Other than that, we are all adjusted and it is much better than I thought it would be. Good luck.

- I'm in SFV - and my kids are older - my baby is 2.5!

As far as putting it on and off - practice is all i can say. THe more you do it the more comfortable you will get with it.
