banded last week - so far, so good!

[Guest guest]

We found out our daughter would need to be banded almost 2 months ago

(she was too young at the time, which is why the delay in banding) and

I have been dreading the casting/banding process ever since. I have

to admit that it has really not been bad. She admittedly is a laid

back baby, so we've been very lucky on that front. She didn't cry a

bit during the casting -- even dozed off at one point (hilarious since

she was stripped down to her diaper with a stocking over her head and

face and plaster dripping all over her). She got her band on Friday

and doesn't seem to mind it a bit. She did wake up once in the night

the first two nights, but went back to sleep after we fed her. On

night 3, she was back to her regular 9 hour sleeping routine.

I just wanted to share a good (or at least not bad)experience for

those parents out there who may be dreading it like I was. Hopefully,

your banding will go smoothly also! Will keep you posted on her

progress.

Congrtulations to you both! I am so glad that your dd is off to

such an easy start with her band. Here's hoping that the whole

process i as easy for you and her.
