Does anyones little ones have a DOC band right now? I need some advice on how to keep him comfortable in it. He is on his 2nd band right now and this one is a little more difficult.

    Brady had 2 as well.  He got his off about a month after his 1st birthday.  What's going on?

    We just have a super hard time with it at night. He just turned one on Saturday so you know how they are at that age. He just really acts like it bothers him so I am really bad about making him wear it. Any advice for me? We got back to Cranial tomorrow to try to shave some off it is really bad on his forehead Sad

    I would definitely talk to your advisor at CT about it.  Brady was never really bothered by it.  Of course, he can sleep about anywhere!!  It may need to be adjusted more.  They may also have some tips for you.  I know you're going to hate me for saying this, but you need to make sure he wears it!!  It's a lot of money and you want the best results possible!!

    One thing you may do is check with your pedi to see if your son can use a pillow or something.  Maybe that would help it be more comfortable for him.

    As PP said, defnitely talk to your CT adviser about it.  And if any part of it is irritating his skin, don't have him wear it until they do the shaving off adjustments.

    lf you're not getting the help you need from them, maybe check to see if you can switch advisers?  We had Mike and he was amazing.

    DS is on his 3rd helmet. We haven't had comfort issues, but DS gets a sweaty/funky head that we're constantly mopping. As everyone has said, call CT and have someone check it out. We've seen a few of the advisers and have had great results with all of them.

    We went yesterday and they took a lot off. He actually did okay last night. He made it through until 4AM. How long did everyones babies wear their bands? We just have so many issues with him and it. Any advice on covering the velcro also? He has learned how to undo it. Also Thank you everyone!!
