That's really good improvement through repositioning. Good job! 7 mm would

be considered mild. What it really comes down to is how you feel about the

shape of his head. Ask yourself, " If his head doesn't get any better than

it is right now, am I OK with that? " If your answer is " yes " then you can

probably skip the band. If it's " no " or " I'm not sure " you might want to

consider a band. I've seen people that have banded at 7 mm, but I have also

seen (and even known personally) people who have graduated at 7 mm.

What do you ladies/guys think???

My son was originally 10.6 MM off. We took him yesterday to get is

follow-up scan at the StarScanner place and he is now down to 7MM. We've

been repositioning, keeping him off his head as much as possible and using

the SleepCurve mattress. We have another appointment in 1 month. I'm hoping

his head gets even better. Do you ladies think he will be fine and it will

get better and not require a helmet? As of now it's looking good..

Thanks

This is really great news. Whatever you've been trying is working for you and I hope that he'll be within normal at his next scan.

Great job!

We’ve

been using the SleepCurve mattress and keeping him off his head as much as

possible during the day in his bumbo or jumper.
