Guest guest Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 My daughter is scheduled to graduate on Monday from her DOC band of 9 weeks. What was it like after the band was removed? Did other babies typically " miss " the band? Have other parents seem regression or improvement post graduation?

Guest guest Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 I've seen some orthos recommend weaning the child off the band, but CT just recommends keeping it off after graduation. We did that with my duaghter's starband and she never missed it. She did bump her head a few times until she realized that now it hurt and she needed to be more careful. Regression is rare. So I wouldn't really worry about it. If your daughter has tort you'll need to continue PT if it isn't resolved & /or keep an eye on it recurring. Just a few days until you can see her head full time :-) Post pics and let us know here results. -christine sydney 2 yrs starband grad > > My daughter is scheduled to graduate on Monday from her DOC band > of 9 weeks.
