Wiggs - Bailey started his treatment (denis brown abduction brace 23.5 hours per day) the day he turned 7 months (which was monday this week) and his issue is with the acetabular angle of the hips, rather than the coverage which is 'good'. Our Ortho surgeon said that when bracing babies after 6 months they tend to be treated as per their age - so a 6 month baby will wear a brace for 6 months, an 8 month baby for 8 months and so on, not sure if this is relevent to your DD situation though as I am unsure what they consider to be mild, moderate or severe.

Vic - The Orthotist told us to put a rolled up nappy or towel so Bailey is rolled slightly to the side while sleeping, rather than laying flat on his back, just for comfort so have been doing that. I might actually put a rolled up nappy under his legs as well though as now that I think about it his legs are a bit 'dangly'. He has been sleeping really well this week, I think trying to move around in the brace is tiring him out, he is absolutely buggered when he goes to bed. I'll have everything crossed for you that CJs next appt goes well and she gets the all clear
