Hi All,

While googling like mad to find out everything I could about Hip Displicia and Pavlic Harnessess etc, I came across this forum and felt so much better for just reading through everyones posts. I took my daugther Natalie (9 weeks old) for an ultrasound 2 days ago just to check her right hip as it seemed maybe a little clicky (and she was breech). I walked out of that ultrasound confused and overwhelmed. It wan't just her right hip it was both, and quite bad in both. Within 24 hours I have seen a peadatrician and physio and Nat has had a Pavlic Harness put on and honestly, I am just devestated. I am happy with the decision to do it, I understand why etc etc and certainly want her to be in it, but on the otherhand everytime I pick her up the harness makes her feel like this little solid brick rather than the soft flexable cuddly baby that I have. I feel like all our mother daugther intimacy has been violated and I can't cuddle with her like I would usually. She has had a bit of colic since she was born and now I am struggling to hold her in a position that I feel I can help her. Anyhow, that is my winge I guess, I am sure you all have gone through this, but I just needed to get it out somehow..
