    She has a sore leg

    Missy has a sore leg, I just know it.

    Last saturday she was in the Jolly jumper having a rare old time, dancing to the Beatles. She was laughing and giggling, all was good. We took her out of it and that evening I noticed that she was very cautiously moving her left leg and would no longer weight bear when we stood her up on our laps. She also screamed that night when we were changing her nappy and touching her leg. I kept her out of the jolly jumper that week and her leg seemed to return to normal and she could weight bear again.

    Sunday we had her in the Jolly jumper again and the same thing. But this time, her leg continues to seem sore to her. She isn't weight bearing on that leg at all and when we stand her up on our laps, she stands on her right leg and puts her left foot up onto her right knee.

    I'm taking her to the Dr today or tomorrow as I'm a bit worried about this hindering her development. Poor wee cherub! I feel so bad for putting her back in the jolly jumper but I can now see that it's done her leg no good.
    She is otherwise her normal happy self and moves her legs around with no troubles when she is sitting or lying down.

    I hope that it's nothing serious!
    How will the Dr know what is going on? Do you think she'll send us for x-rays or something? Has anyone else had anything like this?

    Thanks
