We call him Speed Racer....

... just to be funny. :) I think the jokes and laughing keep it from annoying/embarrasing me. Anyways, here is our "Helmet Holden". He sure didn't like it at first, now onto day three, he's getting used to it.

For anyone interested the helmet is called a StarBand and it's manufactured by OrthoAmerica.
Here is a little snippet from their site:

Plagiocephaly

So Holden has been diagnosed by his Pedi as having Plagiocephaly, possibly due to the sutures in his skull closing too early. Plagiocephaly is a "malformation of the head marked by an oblique slant to the main axis of the skull." It's also called "flat head syndrome". Which really sucks, because Holden is only on his back in his carseat and when he's sleeping. Nearly all of his other time is spent on his belly. I was looking at some pictures from when he was born and his forehead now is definitley more bulging now than it was when he was born. We're going in on May 6th to have an assesment done. If he ends up needing a helmet, it isn't covered by most insurances, including ours. So we'll have a pretty big sum ($2500.00 - $4500.00) to pay to get his head back to normal shape. Here are a few shots of my little man, just for comparison.
