Naomi - Does Bailey wear socks or anything under the brace, I know somewhere back in the Hip thread there was someone talking about sores on there and the suggestion from others and me was to put the chopped up socks on under brace like leg warmers. We never had any but the orthotist when told us about the chopped up socks said they were to avoid sores. Must be really hard when sores develop - hope they give you some good advice tomorrow if you are already doing the sock thing. We used to get the is she wearing the brace now thing all the time too - and my thoughts were just like yours - isn't it obvious!!! Motherhood has taught me that people say the dumbest things something just because they want to say something. "Is it a little girl?" When CJ is wearing a dress etc. etc. IL's are particularly bad in my case of saying stuff just to fill the air!

AFU - Put some carrots and banana in front of CJ today - lots of playing a little bit in mouth probably swallowed none!! Have been very creative today and made CJ some rattles out of old wondersuits, those little containers you get soy sauce/wasabi in at some sushi places, bits of old bras, coins, and then embroidered on some faces.
