Sleepless in San Diego..older / high needs babies

[Guest guest]

Hi all-

My son will be getting his doc band in two weeks. I am a little anxious about

everything. Will he be 8 months when he gets the band. Does anyone else out

there have an older LO with a helmet. How was the transition. Any advise about

how to make them feel comfortable in it (especially while nursing). My son is

what Dr. Sears would call a 'high needs baby' He is also teething like crazy (8

teeth already) so he doesnt sleep or feel well. I guess you could say I am

hoping for the best but expecting the worse. I am feeling a sense of guilt

also...is that normal? He was born with brachy/plagio but it got worse over the

months of trying repositioning. I also feel guilty about not following my gut

and helmeting sooner. Thanks everyone
