first of all i went into the peds appointment expecting bad news!
he sat me down and said i am happy with the way the ultrasound went! huh?? wat?? was my reply as the u/s ppl thought her hips weren't the best.
anyways he said her right hip (the one that was the concern at the start) is great!! its a normal hip now...
its the left one now that they are concentrating on.
He explained everything to me and put my mind to ease.
He then took Lahni over to his table, undressed her n took the bottom bit of the harness of n looked at her hips.
showed me that they are coming along great!!
then took the top part of the harness of (i thought he was goin to put her in another pavlik)
then he handed her to me n said heres ur floppy baby!!!
i was like.... ohhh is she out of it now!!! and he said she sure is, she now needs to wear the harness you have at home!
she'll be in it for 6 weeks, then we'll have another ultrasound. depending on how that looks she may need to be in it for another 6 weeks.
and she may need to be put in the pavlik harness again but for now, we can bath her as much as we like yay!
im so glad we have the best doctor ever!!!! on cloud 9 right now
oh and last night she had her first bath in 7.5 weeks and she LOVED it... was so relaxed looked like she was going to fall asleep
Naomi - i hope your first night went ok and that Bailey is getting used to the DB Bar. I think it took both Lahni and I only a day to get used to the pavlik... i think it was more me than her though because i was trying to understand the whole situation. and i pretty much looked at the harness being a pain in the butt other than something that would help her in the long run. thats fantastic news that he is allowd to have a bath. How long did the doctor say he'll need to be in the DB bar for??
Just wondering if anyone has facebook?
