Helmet Update

So Kail has now had his helmet on for two months and while his head shape looks a lot better then it did when he started, as you can see in this picture, there was virtually  no movement in the last month.

If you want to get technical we need him to have a Cephalic Ratio (https://www.cappskids.org/cephalic-index-what-do-the-numbers-mean/) in the 80's, He started at 96, at one month he was at a 93 and two month he was at a 92.  Although we are happily closer to the mild side rather then moderate to sever side of the spectrum.

So what this technical mumbo jumbo means is that he is still considered flat.  Having no movement for the month is not considered "abnormal" or "bad" its just that he didn't have a growth spurt that month and we now have to extend the amount of time he has to wear the stupid thing out a month (end of August).  At least we hope its only a month, again depends on a growth spurt.  So weirdly everyone pray he gets bigger . . . . I can't believe I just said that.
