Smarti - I totally know what you mean about not wanting to wish time away, but also wanting it to be the time when the brace comes off too! We are almost halfway - Bailey will have been in his brace for 3 months on Feb 23, and we are looking at 6 months of treatment, and I must say this time has gone quickly (as time does when you have a LO). Glad to hear things are going well with Phoebe so far, thats awesome and it makes it easier on Mummy too

Corelly - hope everything is going ok for your family right now, great to hear that DD is getting around the place - I love the sound of the 'giggle of triumph' when she gets where she wants to go - thats soooo cute

Bailey is really starting to get mobile - he is doing a backwards crawl, it really started properly last week, but now if I put him anywhere on the tiles, he crawls backwards basically by using his arms to push his body backwards - he will have awesome upper body strength by the end of all this. As I have socks covering his brace cuffs, it makes it easy to push himself back as the softness means his legs just slide back when he pushes himself back, he is pretty impressed with himself right now (as is Mummy and Daddy!! We've shed a few tears of happiness I can tell you!)

Hoping all the other babies are doing well
