Hahahaha aww bless him ! I swear it always happens when they have the helmet off . Hope he doesn’t bruise too much !

I agree it’s like a safety net now to stop the accidents haha ! They will for sure be surprised when it’s off . Imagine sleeping on a pillow without it , it’s going to be amazing for them !

Soooo haha what a whirlwind it's been... Enzos next and final appointment was supposed to be the 11th November which is a day before his 1st birthday, I haven't been happy with how his helmet has been sitting for a week now, its almost sideways and covering one ear, so I sent photos to my specialist to see what she thought, turns out that looks like the last little growth spurted we needed to shift the last 2%! Our appointment has been brought forward to next Tuesday, where we will become helmet free! Such a bittersweet time, I'm so emotional!

 

[Bevziibubble]

Aww! That's great news

 

[HLx]

Thank you Bev, I can't believe we done it before his 1st birthday! He was estimated to be in it until 13/14 months! X

 

[Bevziibubble]

That's amazing progress! You've both done great!!

 

[Babybump87]

Ooo wowsa !!! This is amazing !!!

He’s a serial growth spurter for sure !

So happy for you all !

 

[HLx]

Thank you both so much! Tbh I don't post on the forum as much as I used too, due to being so fecking busy!!! But I do love to update this journal... it will be bittersweet for it to come to an end x

 

[Babybump87]

Aww yeah I’d still love to hear how he is doing after all this !

Haha yes you did! Thank you so much! I cannot wait to snuggle into his curly hair for as long as I want too! How are you and your family hun? X

 

[Babybump87]

Is he helmet free now ?! So excited for you all !

 

[HLx]

We've done it!

Helmet treatment completed as of yesterday with results of 86% (I think just waiting to be sent my chart from the specialist) brachycephaly and 1mm plagiocephaly! If we did keep it on for the full month we would have reached 0mm which is perfect! But I am also over the moon with 1mm. Considering we started at 101% brachycephaly and 19mm plagiocephaly!

I spent the evening having snuggles with Enzo without getting headbutted in the face with a bowling ball! Haha I find it odd with no helmet now, after a bath I went to grab it, I checked him on the monitor last night and thought shit I forgot to put his helmet on! Its going to take some getting used too as that's been my routine for the past 5 months!

So sad my journal has come to and end but I will update the main page with all measurements once I get hold of my chart!

Thank you all for being apart of our wonky head journey!
