Hi all

Sorry I have not been any help with recent posts. My daughter Scarlett has not been in plaster (yet) only a pavlik harness and dennis brown brace.

I think whatever the change that occurs - it takes a little while for the bubs to settle back to their old self and normal sleeping habits. I too put a folded quilt under Scarlett when she first went into her harness as she seemed to be in so much pain and would wake up screaming. The first few nights I rocked her in her pram in the loungeroom until she fell asleep. I then moved the pram into her room, then she eventually went back in her cot.

It can be very upsetting finding out that your baby has ddh but you can see from other people's stories that in the long run everything sorts itself out.

I just ofund out I am pregnant with my second child and now I am worried that this bub will have the same thing too. Another worry is that Scarlett will not be out of her brace (or worse still need an operation) before the baby arrives. I'll have to wait until Feb to find out how she is progressing.

Anyway take care all

Nicole
