This is the Journey of my little football head <3
The adaption process was smooth:
Day 1 - Wear for one hour 3 times in the day - not for naps
Day 2 - Wear for 2 hours 3 times in the day - not for naps
Day 3- Wear for 4 hours twice this day - yes with nap
Day 4 - Wear for 8 hours straight only. - yes with nap
Day 5 - 23 hours on... one hour off (for bathing)
<br>

3 days after the 23 hour use... since he has such chubby cheeks he developed a rash. which last 24+ hours ...(The Dr let us know that if the rash lasts more than one hour.. it should be adjusted-- and babies should not be wearin gtheir helmet during this time)
I took him to the appt the next day and his helmet was adjusted.. everything was great after that,

After 2 weeks of wearing his helmet:
NEXT APPT: May 2nd
The left side is flatter
The bumps on the bottom are from the heads growth already.
During the first follow up appt, the Dr noted that he apparently had a growth spurt and the reshaping has already begun. Lucky us!!! <3
::She said that normally they dont see results until 2 months.. so those who dont get results immediately shouldn't worry.. we just got lucky witht he growth spurt.. and my son is already 8 months.. as opposed to the majority who are 6 months. ::

Note: This week he was sick with high fevers. During the times with the fever we needed to remove the helmet.
