Hi everyone

wysiwyg - good to hear that DD is now improving so much after wearing the dennis brown brace. It is so wonderful to see their little bodies again after having a harness/brace/cast on for so long isn't it? I'm sure that her legs will come in eventually although I must say that even to this day Scarlett is very flexible and often spreads her legs out to the sides when lying on the floor.

Sara - it's great to hear that you were so prepared for what was going to happen. I think the more ready you are the easier it is for you to be there for your daughter. I hope the next 7 weeks go by quickly.

About our little man - we had his ultrasound last week but only saw the paed today. The ultrasound was a nightmare. He pretty much screamed for half an hour while having it done. The woman doing it was a real cow. She was nasty to me from the moment I got in there and decided she hated me when I rejected her suggestion of putting sugar syrup on Xavier's dummy to calm him down. Oh well back to the results - the paed said that he has stage 1 (borderline) DDH but thinks that he will grow out of it. He has ordered another ultrasound in 6 weeks to check his progress so I'll keep my fingers crossed. I didn't ask the sonographer what the ultrasound looked like while she was doing it (because she was so nasty) but I saw the percentages were between 50 - 60% when she was capturing the images. I remember Scarlett's good hip was about that, but her bad hip was 17% so I thought his results were pretty good.

I hope everyone else and their bubs are doing well.
