I agree with Kami. I would definitely weigh the short term

discomfort with the long term emotional impact that not having the

band done might have. The casting process is so short and most

babies are back to their normal disposition immediately afterwards.

If it were me, I'd go for the band. There are possible medical

problems that could result with that much assymetry left as well as

teasing.]

Good luck.
