Brayden's getting a Helmet:(

At Brayden's 6 month check up Dr. Mumford informed us that Brayden looked like he was going to need a helmet to fix his head shape. He sent us to Primarys to a specialist to make sure. Last Tuesday he had to get a cast of his head so that they could make a helmet for him. That sure was a adventure. Brayden hated it so bad. The cast went from the middle of his eyes down the back of his neck. He cried the whole time until the very end when you could tell that he had had enough, his whole body tightened up, he went bright red and screamed so loud. He was so upset about the whole thing! So sense then he hates anything being on his head, even someones hand. So we have been putting hats on him so hopefully he gets use to it a lit more. Brayden is getting it on Tuesday and has to wear it for 3 months, 23 hours a day! Sad huh? The poor boy is going to be so hot! But it's all for the best. After all is said and done I am sure he will thank us later on in his life. At least we hope so!?

Michelle, I've known a few people who have had to do that! My friends baby had to get one like 2 months ago and it's helped a Ton! Really they are pretty cute! And if he falls, he's protected!
