Reverting

I'm really starting to worry about Jesse's head shape. It seems to be reverting back to the triangular shape it was before surgery.

He is getting a D.O.C. Band a week from tomorrow. Tomorrow we are getting the 3D scan done. The D.O.C. Band is for plagio and they are also going to try to widen the temporal areas since they are still narrow.

This first photo is from a month ago and the last one is from today. It seems to me that his head is elongating and the forehead is getting narrower and protruding more. Do you see it or am I just crazy? I know they are not at the same angle, but trying to keep that boy still is nearly impossible...
Please tell me I'm crazy. And even if I'm not, I just really hope the D.O.C. Band can fix it. He had the open CVR/FOA. It seems nuts that we have to use a helmet after an open procedure. The plagio doesn't really look all that bad to me, so if it were just for that, I'm not sure the surgeon would have even recommended it. And every single time I've taken Jesse for a follow up with the surgeon, he mentions that Jesse may need a second surgery.

Maybe I'm just having a bad day. I really hate cranio.
