I can't offer any help to you, but I know many on this site have had them for their kiddos. Hoping you get lots of responses!!

 

My son wore one starting at just over 4 months of age. He was deemed 'graduated' 3 months later.

 

Mine are in them now. I am soooo ready to be done with them, but we probably have a couple more months!

 

wHAT IS IS FOR?

 

If you are interested in knowing a little bit about plagiocephaly, I wrote about our story here.

 

Mine got them at 3 1/2 months of age. My son's head got squished in the womb so he came out flat on the side. My daughter developed the flatness after she was born however from laying on her back so much. It's been 5 weeks and I really, really don't like them. Supposedly it's only going to be 3-6 weeks total.

 

We're going for a consulation in February for Cameron. He prefers to lay his head towards the right side, so his head is very flat on that side. Now I'm thinking his brother might need one too because the back of his head has become so flat! I try to turn their heads when they sleep, but when I go back in their room, it's back to the side they prefer!
