my sons plagio started out at 12mm at 4 mos, I didn't even know what was going on with him until I asked his Ped , thats when I realized it was "worse" than I thought. so I can see how others would not notice...but I did and it bothered me alot , and it worried me what he would think if he knew I could have fixed it and didnot, so after only 6 weeks in the band he is in the normal range and we are just going to wear a little longer to try and get more inprovement. I am so gald that we did do it . Its very frustrating when one Dr tells you its nothing and another one reccomeneds treatment, thats often the way in the medical world, just a matter of opinions.
