Thank you Minimatron and Hailey's mum for your replies. It helps so much to know that others understand.
Hailey's mum, your comments about your DD have helped me to believe that she wont be left behind. My DD is crawling backwards at the moment, although in the short time she had the DB Bar on and did not do any standing she has completely forgotten about it and cannot do it. I do hope she also develops and crawls/stands etc even id she is in the plaster for a while.
I am assuming you are visiting the RHC, have they indicated how long you will be in plaster for and then how long in a brace? It sounds like such a long process for everyone in this position regardless of whether it is a brace alone or plaster and brace.
It is great to know that I can vent and discuss this on here, as my husband does not like to talk about it at all and prefers not to know anything until the doctors tell us about it.
When DD is in plaster (Spica) do they fit in prams and cars eats? today i wanted to buy DD one of those walker toys (that don't move though) with the table in front of them to play etc.. but I am unsure as to whether she will be able to fit in it or even sit in it? Any sugestions with these sort of toys? Look forward to hearing back, thanks so much.
