Hi, Thanks Skye for letting me know bout this thread!!

Yes my dd had/has hypotonia (which is the fancy name for low muscle tone). My dd's was picked up at her 6 month health check and then a paediatrician agreed aswell and so went saw a physio for a year. She was always behind for gross motor stuff like rolling, sitting, standing and walking. However she has completely caught up now. I am not sure if it was the physio or it just took more time. The physio said many children have hypotonia they just aren't diagnosed, but are the later developers. At our last appointment (18 months) the physio said that noone would know now by looking at DD (only a physio and a paediatrician if they looked hard.

I was very scared about what this may and could have meant and it is so incredibly stressful being told your child is not doing the "norm".

Ask any more questions..
