The Helmet is Here!



We went today to get Claire's helmet. Surprisingly, she didn't cry when he put it on. He said usually they cry for the first two days because they want it off, but so far so good. She wears it for one hour on then one hour off for the first day. Tomorrow we will increase to 2 hours on, one hour off. We increase the time on each day and on day 5 she should wear it 23 hours out of the day! Hopefully, she will have a lot of growth spurts in the next two months so her head will form into the perfect shape. I took one picture before she got her helmet and some after. She's still a cutie no matter what!

She looks adorable in the helmet...just think of the beautiful round head she will have!!!! Our Ped seems to think we do not need any assistance with shaping Jack's head, but I pressed the issue and he referred us to Dr. Parent at UMC, so we will see what he thinks. I will keep you updated.
