Tina,

Just to let you know, when we started told us that Dillon would

probably be in it for three or four months. They can't really

predict how much your baby will grow during the time they are

wearing the helmet. They are only estimating the time they think it

will take.

If hasn't given you his cell phone number yet, he will. And

feel free to call him anytime you have redness or other issues. He

really is great to work with.

One thing that I do suggest is when you go to get Ava's helmet, you

should try putting it on and taking it off while you are in the

office. will likely make several adjustments. He will put it on

and take it off several times. Getting it on right is not as easy as

it looks. :-) We went back after a few days only to find out we

weren't putting it far enough down on Dillon's forehead.

Best wishes, and if you have any questions, this is a great place to

ask them. Finally, some words of encouragement: People around here

are much more accepting than I thought they would be. I figured that

I would get tons of questions and wierd looks, but only two people

ever asked me why he wore it and they were both very polite.
