Hi - Don't know if you'll get this, as I don't know how this all works. I don't know why you said Kendall was too young for the vest. My Bonnie-Rose got hers when she was 14 months old. It was a sanity saver! She and I were fighting every day about doing the cpt. I could hardly hold her down to do it and she screamed though most of it about half the time. She is 27 months old now and insists on putting on the vest herself and turning on the machine herself. My only problem now is that she doesn't want to shake fast, so changes the settings every chance she gets. Hope this helps - Marie
