Heather and Kellie - Thanks for your replies. I was starting to think no one on here had gone through the femoral osteotomies. Hmm, I'm wondering why...
Lisa, other than the extreme casting position, I guess I don't understand why the doc wants her so immobile. The femoral ostetomies are secured by pins/plates...
Lisa, the computer ate my first post - glad it got through - I couldn't tell on my end so I typed another. I had to chuckle at your extra cautious surgeon,...

I'm so sorry about the smell. Hopefully your cast change is coming soon. I also use Mustella no rinse cleanser. It smells really good. Maybe that would help to...

Hi Breena, I don't know about Dr. Song but my son had his open reduction at 9 months with Dr.Mosca at Seattle Childrens. He is out of the spica and in full...
Hi there - I've been inactive with the group for a while as our son had his cast removed end of April. For background, our son is a first-born, breech,...
I have no experience, but i suggest to get a second opinion...... definately, it helps. I already got two more on my daughters future pelvic osteotomy and...
We also go to Children's in Seattle but see Dr. Gregory Schmale. I wonder how many doctors they have doing open reductions at Seattle! We're very happy with...
hi Alice, well after all my excitement, we saw the specialist yesterday who said that yes lily's hips are forming wonderfully but he still wants her to wear...
Monica, I do not know much about this yet. We just came out of a cast today from an open reduction 6 weeks ago. We are doing a hip abduction brace 12...

Michele - I have to leave for work soon, so this will be short, but I just had to comment back and tell you that our daughter also wakes up at night with...
Hi Marcia - How old is your daughter now? How is she doing after the surgeries? Will she need anything else done? That is our fear right now that she...

Lisa, can you put her in the wagon and pull her from room to room in the house with you? At least you would be able to get some things done that way. We kept...
Hi Michele, Welcome to the group. My daughter had a harnedd, but it didn't work for her. In Autumn's case it sounds like it could work so I would stick with...
Hi Michele, Welcome! You will find many many helpful tips and info in this forum. This group has done wonders for me, and I am sure it will do the same for...
Hi Michele I am also new here. My little girl was breech, too. She was breech from about 28 weeks onwards. We tried an external version but it failed. I found...
Sorry, I am REALLY late on this. I didn't check my email for awhile. LOTS to catch up on. I didn't see anyone on the list from Minnesota so please add my...
Your case sounds eerily familiar to mine. I would just leave the harness on. She doesn't know any different otherwise. My baby's right hip was loose at birth,...
