Guest guest Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 My daughter just got her second DOCBand (11.5 months old) 1)she is sweating like crazy. I have the heat set for 65 degrees and she's walking/crawling around in a short sleeve onesie and nothing else. (meanwhile I'm bundled up in sweat shirts and thick socks) Night time is thin cotton pj's (long sleeve and leg but open foot because I have the fan on). She has been in the helmet since the 18th (8 days). We did not experience nearly this amount of sweating in the last helmet which was worn in August - November and it was much hotter then. How much longer should this last? Our check up is not until next Thursday (Feb 3) 2)She's already figured out how to get the helmet off by grabbing the back lip and pulling it up over her head like taking off a shirt. Any advice on keeping the helmet on? Our clinician said my daughter was not old enough to figure this out and yet she's barely been in the helmet a week when this started. 3)The helmet is loose enough that a child at daycare is able to grab hold and twist the helmet enough so the my daughter's ear is folded over itself and trapped under the helmet. Daycare is dealing with the child (actually my daughter's teacher banned the child to his bed until the office agrees to move him out of our room - there have been several issues with this child), but is the helmet too loose? I know some looseness is supposed to be there but her first helmet was not that loose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
