Hello,
I have a 6 month old, recently fit with Starband, side-opening helmet for
Plagio. This child has many medical issues, one being very low tone...she
has no neck control whatsoever. Mom cannot don the helmet by
herself...needs a second pair of hands to hold the baby, and they are not
always available.
Any tricks that you have come across to don a helmet by one parent for a
child with severe low tone? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
