Okay we saw the paed, and he would like us to have an MRI done to get a clear picture of the area to see if the dimple is actually attached to the coccyx or not as the ultrasound was inconclusive in his opinion. He has agreed to wait 12 mths to see how he develops over the next year and to make sure there are no issues with toilet training etc.

Apparently the tether doesn't grow with the child, so when the child does grow the tether begins to pull on the coccyx which then creates spinal problems. So if an MRI in 12 mths finds it definitely attached then we will have to look into having it snipped.

He was thinking of doing the MRI earlier, but said they would have to give lachlan anesthetic or a sedative of some sort to keep him still for the 10 mins the MRI was being done, which I didn't want to happen so that is why he agreed to get reviewed in 12mths then go from there.

Also he said that his testicles were very high, so we have to see if they drop tonight when Lachlan is in the bath and if so that will be fine and he will review that again in 12mths too and if not then it is back to the GP to sort that out

Love
