So the news was not good but so far I am OK. We were told that Scarlett is getting to big for the pavlik harness and that she will be put in a dennis brown brace this Thursday. The upsetting part was that the doctor thinks she will require some kind of bracing until she is at least 1! I guess I had prepared for bad news but not quite like this. A few extra months I could have dealt with but this means 7 more month at least.
Has anyone else had experince moving from a pavlik to dennis brown? Does anyone have photos of what it looks like? Is it harder to fit into carseats/prams than the pavlik?
I hope she is OK becasue we are going away on holidays the day after and I don't want her to be miserable. I am trying to look on the bright side of things and think that at least she won't have straps around her lower legs or shoulders any more.
Oh well it looks like we are in this for a longer haul than first expected and I guess things could be worse but it is still a little bit of a blow.
Wish us luck for Thursday...
Nicole
