Shortest time in band

[Guest guest]

I am curious. I have a 4.5 month old in the starband. He has been ib

his helmet since 1-26-09. He has already had 3 adjustments. He is a

big boy and growing super fast and is weighing 21 pounds now. The

doctors say he will most likely outgrow the helmet with in the next 2

to 3 weeks. To me that was fast and his head is looking great but his

eyes and ears are still real out of line and very noticable. So would

this be the end to the helmet or do you think they would say since he

grew so fast he would need another? Is the helmet suppose to realign

the ears any?because it hasnt helped him in any way just the shape of

his head. Any info would be great!

Hi ,

My son started the Doc Band at 4.5 mths and has been in it since

Christmas. We started noticing a diff in his ears after a month and a

half and now his ears look great. It still needs work but it has

greatly improved. But his case was severe. Most people report that

the ears are the last thing that corrects so I wouldn't worry. You

still have time. Also, his eyes are still a little off so I guess

that takes longer than the ears.
