Guest guest Posted October 18, 2005 Report Share Posted October 18, 2005 Hi , I'd see about getting her back into PT. A lot of tort babies have balance issues. Is she tilting? It's common for tort to return when a baby has a growth spurt or reaches a new milestone. > > Hi everyone! > I have a question about older tort babies and walking. Kylie is walking, and has adapted well to her tort BUT she has absolutely no balance. Has anyone else encountered this in an older baby, and what kinds of things did you do to help them gain balance enough to stay upright? > Kylie still has her helmet, and her head is looking awesome. I think that we are almost done with that. PT discharged her months ago b/c she had full ROM in her neck and was beginning with walking. HELP! > > ~ mommy to > Kylie Jo 13 months > mild plagio/mocerate brachy/ tort > STARband June 30.. > > E.J. 14 months > Tort resolved, PT grad > a nd seven other busy kids..... > MI > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
