Hi ,

There is a HUGE difference in my son. You can see his picture " Lyons " under L. I

didn't

post any before and afters yet, but will soon. I have an appt. with Dr. on

Monday to

see how much longer. I am hoping it comes off because I think his head looks

great, but

my husband wants to keep it on longer because Dr. said that the head can

flatten

back out again if you take it off too soon. My son is 8 months old right now.

His helmet really only smelled the first couple of weeks. After that his body

temp adjusted

and it has been fine. I use citrus scented alcohol from Walmart and it smells

really nice. I

also wash his head down with a baby wipe and bathe him daily.

I am new to Nashville actually. I'm from LA and we moved here to be near family.

We

almost moved and didn't because we want to continue the therapy in the same

place. I like

RHS a lot. They are so nice there. We have been there for a lot of adjustments

and they are

just so supportive and positive.

Hope it just keeps getting better. Did you post any pictures??
