Today, I wanted to share this image of her leg in a brace. When born, she was diagnosed with hip dysplasia. It is common for babies that were born breech. She has to wear a body brace for three months to help stabilize her hip. Luckily, our doctor caught it early and the chances that this treatment works is very high. We just have to help her through these next 3 months. She hates the brace and it makes me really sad/angry to see her in it. I know she is uncomfortable in it and sometimes I just want to tear it off. We have an appointment today with the orthopedic surgeon to get an update on her progress. We are hopeful that the treatment is working and she can avoid surgery. Whatever the result we are optimistic that she will still have a full healthy life. If anyone else has been through this with their kids or family. Any advice is much appreciated. Thank you!
Here's the daily portrait for future timelapse:
