Re: HELP! Still not sure which band...going nuts!

[Guest guest]

Pam, that is a good point that maybe the 15% is those that actually

follow-up with a 2nd band. 15% is the only number our CT (AZ) gave

us. Our son started with 8mm assymetry and outgrew his band in 8

weeks which made him finish at 3mm. To me, it seems like 5mm

wouldn't cause one to outgrow the band. If they didn't say he

outgrew it, I would have kept him in it longer. Don't get me wrong,

we got good correction and I was very pleased but there is such a

discrepancy when I hear other babies recieving a lot more correction

before outgrowing it.
