infant size 2 mask

Anyone else having trouble with the size 2 infant mask staying on the "Stem" for the Pari LC Plus neb cup? The size 1 fit nice and snug. The size two falls off constantly. Which seems minor until the screaming, flailing, really really strong 5 month old you're giving TOBI to has just managed to knock the damn thing off for the seventh time and you're only 5 minutes into the 25 minute treatment.! YUP. It's frustrating. We are using the right stem (Or whatever you call the L-shaped piece) for the mask. I just wondered if anyone found a home-made way to make the thing fit correctly.

Are you talking about the mask falling off the baby or falling off the neb fitting? I wrote earlier suggesting a zip-tie assuming you meant the neb fitting but it occured to me later that if you were talking about the baby's head it would sound a bit harsh to suggest a zip tie. Hope I didn't offend.

Last poster...thanks for the laugh - I got an immediate visual of Emily with a zip tie around her head.. hee hee! No offense taken. The mask falls off the fitting, though. I think I'm actually going to try rubber bands around the end of the elbow. Unless someone has a better idea?
