Helmet adjustments to line up occipits?

Hello,

My daughter is 12 mos and has been in a helmet for plagio since 9 mos.

I did aggressive repo since she was 8 weeks old. I have seen much

improvement and her flat spot is getting nicely rounded.

However, her occipits (sp?) are not symmetrical. We have a fantastic

orthodist who does measurements on her diagonal and circumference so

the mismatch in the occipits isn't obvious from the measurements.

Does anyone have experience with the occipits not being symmetrical?

Can you suggest changes to the helmet that I need to ask for to line

them up? There is currently pads on the front for forehead bossing

and a pad at the back to encourage growth towards the flat spot (where

it is shaved).

Since she is already 12 mos, I want to make the most of the helmet.

Thanks! I have found this group to be a great source of info.

....Kay
