Guest guest Posted January 13, 2009 Report Share Posted January 13, 2009 I see the plagio. Where are you located? Are there any CT's in your area? They can do a free evaluation. Then you can take that info to your dr and maybe that will help.

Guest guest Posted January 14, 2009 Report Share Posted January 14, 2009 I can definitely see the plagio. There doesn't seem to be any front bossing, but the back right side could definitely benefit from a band. Our pediatricians never recommended a band. We went to Cranial Technologies and Orthomerica to get measurements and I am glad we did. Our daughter had a combination of plagio and brachy. Now, thanks to the DOC band she only has brachy. She will be turning 1 year old tomorrow but we are getting her a second band in hope of seeing even better results. If I were you, I wouldn't wait too long. I find it very stressful to deal with this and having the band do all the work for you AND correct the problem has been a blessing. My advice to you, get numbers, demand a prescription, and band your baby as soon as possible. You'll be glad you did.
