Cranio Cap Update



We had a long Cranio Cap appointment today. We got some good news and some disappointing news.

Good News - his head is shaping really nicely which means the cap is working! We thought we were to the point where we could have Owen wear his Cap just during naps and at night.

Disappointing News - his current Cap is to small and he cant wear it anymore :-( This means he will have a two week break (no cap at all) and will be refitted with his new cap on March 24th. He will have to wear his new cap 22 hours a day for an undetermined amount of time and then will probably, at some point, go to just wearing it during naps and at night.

Right now it sounds like we have 4-8 more weeks of having a Cranio Cap (once he gets his new cap) - which is a little longer that we originally expected but hopefully we will still be Cap Free by Owen's First Birthday which is just around the corner!

Other Good News - He is done with Gillette Physical Therapy for his torticollis! His neck range of motion is perfect and he no longer has a right sided resting head tilt.
Way To Go Owen!
