So this past week my husband and I figured out the "bump" on our youngest head was actually the same size as the gaps on the crib bars. She loves to rock back and forth and slam her head into them. Her PT and OT looked at it and of course like us was very concerned. She will register pain when she bumps her forehead, but not the top of her head where the bump starts (It starts at the hairline and spans back).

So needless to say, she will be going to a neurologist for CT scans and also they want her to go to a cranio doc for a fitted, padded helmet.

So has any of the parents here, or even some adults have any experience with these? How did they work and did you/your child respond well to it?

I have known for months now that she has needed one, however, insurance is not always the most understanding :/
