Guest guest Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 I just noticed my sons head was flat on the right side and back. My peditrician suggested a helmet right away. We went on Friday for a scan and in two weeks Connor will be fitted for his helmet. Connor is 3 1/2 months and will need to wear his for 3-6 months. I would take your litle one for a second opinion. Go with your gut, mom's know best. Check out www.orthomerica.com Good luck to you both. > I hope someone on here can help me. > > My son is now 5 ½ months old.

Guest guest Posted February 10, 2008 Report Share Posted February 10, 2008 I would definitely go for a second opinion. We used Cranial Technologies and they were awesome. If you have one near you, I would go for a free evaluation. If you don't have one near you, then I'd go to either a Hanger or Starband facility. Babies adjust very quickly to the band and a lot of insurance companies will reimburse upon appeal. Good luck. > > I just noticed my sons head was flat on the right side and back.
