Re: Sweet baby Mikayla is getting her first vest next week...

Is there a special way that you introduced the vest to or did

she accept it easily from the beginning. Mikaya isn't a fan of any

kind of change - she's very comfortable and secure with routine and

boredom. I might have my hands full next week....eeeyyyyy!

Donna,

We really talked the vest up before it got here. We talked about how

would be able to play when getting PT with it and how she could dance with it on

if she wanted too........... When it arrived we took it out and put it together

with her. We put the vest part on without the hose and let her wear it. we

turned it on and listened to it then we finally plugged the hose in and gave her

baby doll a treatment. Then she wanted to try it. She had it on for about 30

seconds the first time and we sang had a little lamb when it was going.

She loved that, so we kept adding 15 seconds at a time for a little while. Then

when she said she didn't want to do anymore we just stopped. We did it every day

though for a few times a day. We did explain that this is how we would do CPT

from now on. A few days after we got the vest a rep came out and was

already a pro at having it on for a few min at a time. We started out at 2, 5

min " doses " 2 x daily. We eventually over about 2 weeks raised the time to 2,

10 min " doses " 2 x daily. I hope this helps!
