Helmet update

Today Eli had his 1st follow up appointment at UNC to check his helmet. He slept in it Saturday and Sunday nights and doesn't really seem to mind it now. I think he feels weird with it off. Over the past 3 weeks, his head has grown by 1/8". With just a week of the helmet on, that growth is in the area we needed it. They did pictures and measurements this morning and compared them to 3 weeks ago when his mold was made. They said his progress was great and that he just needed to keep growing. I have finally realized that the helmet does not actually change his head as it is right now by forcing it to move, it guides his growth to round it out. We go back in two weeks to do more measurements and check. As his head grows, they will continue to mold the helmet - even made a few tweaks today. His sleeping hasn't been that great the past week. We're not sure if it's helmet related or he wasn't feeling well. We hope that tonight after a regular day, it will be better. Wish us luck!
