We saw the neurosurgeon today for a follow-up, and he says that Andrew does not need a helmet. YAY!!!!!!!! He says there is still some "frontal bossing" which means that his forehead is still bulging forward a little bit, but he believes that it will correct itself as he grows. He will probably always have a forhead that bulges some, but not to the point that it will look like a defect. He is very happy with how Andrew's head looks. He told me that it's harder for me to see the difference because I see him everyday, but to the doctor who hasn't seen him since the end of April, there is a lot of difference. Andrew was so cute during the visit. Usually, when someone walks in who he's not familiar with, he'll get very quiet and just watch them, but as soon as the doctor walked in, he just started cooing and chattering. It's like he knew that this was the person who had fixed his head, and he was trying to say thank-you!
I'm just glad we don't have to try and fit in fittings for a helmet along with our upcoming vacation and school starting in just a few weeks.
