Guest guest Posted October 11, 2010 Report Share Posted October 11, 2010 My son who is 10 months old and has/had moderate to severe plagiocephaly, is about to finish his first DocBand. He has 4 weeks to go. At first, I thought we would only have this on for 4 months and be done and now the tech is saying that they recommend a second band. His head has grown 8 mm in 12 weeks and it has rounded out nicely although when his hair is wet and at certain angles, I still see the flatness on one side, although it is improved and with his hair, it's impossible to see when dry. My dilemna lies in if we should move forward for another band for 4 months. The tech said that she would classify his head now as mild to moderate and it really could go either way in whether or not we should band again even though she recommends it. At first I thought, no way, we are done, but in other ways I feel like we've gone this far, shouldn't we see it through...just wondering if a second band is really going to make that much difference...neither band is covered by insurance. So, my question is, does anyone have experience one way or another...wished they banded a second time and regret it or did band a second time and felt like it would've been fine had you not or are so happy that you banded a second time? Thank you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
