Guest guest Posted April 1, 2010 Report Share Posted April 1, 2010 Hi . My son needed only one band through CT, and that was for a baby who didn't start until nearly 9 months old and had severe plagio (18 mm). He did have better-than-expected growth for a baby his age while in the band. As a result, he had amazing correction and finished in 13 weeks with a head that I believe looks perfect to anyone without a very trained eye for plagio. I'm hoping to find some time to upload some photos and write about his " graduation " soon. We had to pay out of pocket for our DOCband, and worried about the possibility of a second band, but in the end we decided we were willing to take that risk. Know that in this group there is likely an overrepresentation of people who have 1) had problems with their band (so they come here for info and help), 2) have babies who have been in bands longer (people who are in and out of them quickly seem more likely to do the band and then move on), and 3) become very educated about plagio and perhaps as a result are hyper-attuned to it as well. I would take into account all of these factors when you consider people's experiences. Certainly there are plenty of people here who don't fall into any of these categories, but I think there will be more people in them than you would find in the general population of parents of banded babies. I have nothing but good things to say about CT, but lots of people in this group have also had great experiences with Hanger. Good luck to you in your decision!
