Helmet update

It's been just over a month now since we started the helmet treatment to re-shape our little one's head. Here's the latest:

We went in for another laser scan, which means...
And here's the progress. If you enlarge the picture below you will see the red line was her original head shape. The blue line is her current head shape. It's amazing how much it's changed!!

For now, the doctor says we'll do one more month of full time wear (23 hours a day). Then she'll probably only have to wear it for naps and night time for another few weeks.

Here's some cute smiley pictures of McBaby with her lovely head gear! (Notice the teeth!)
