Mom's who had girls.

Serious question:
This is my 1st daughter & I was wondering if headband bows are okay that wraps around the head when she newborn & up.? I just don't want it to indent into her head or leave mark. I'm scared tbh. Can she wear it all the time.? Just advice for me moms :(

You can buy cloth ones that are just as pretty, I'm having a girl and they're the ones I'm buying at the moment. Rather the hard elastic try find the softer ones?

I'm on my fourth girl and i think its just fine.  If its leaving a huge indention then its too tight just get a bigger one. Its not going to hurt them or leave and type of permanent mark or anything.

I have had two daughters and they always wore headbands but I use to take my hands and stretch them out a little before I would put them on their heads so that it wouldn't leave a mark. I wouldn't stretch it out enough it didn't fit but just enough it wouldn't be so tight.

I personally felt bad that it left marks because that means its too tight so I rarely put them on. My little girl had a ton of hair though so I could do bows etc as alternatives.
