Guest guest Posted September 15, 2004 Report Share Posted September 15, 2004 Well, sounds like a little bit of progress.....have you asked the dr. what he thinks of all this? s. crawled -- WOOHOOO! Hi again, Okay so we made progress today. is crawling just alittle bit but she's moving at least (out of the DBB). She also attempted to pull up on her activity table but when she put down her left foot for balance, she tumbled, like she didn't have any support. She cried but was okay and went back to her table and went up on her knees. Then she put her left foot on the floor (picture man kneeling to propose) and I could tell she was putting a little weight on it. When I gave her her bath tonight, I massaged her foot while washing it. She screamed but I was persistent for about one full minute. I started singing and she stopped crying. Made me think that if she was in EXTREME pain due to something really being wrong, then I wouldn't have been able to distract her so easily from crying. Granted the singing doesn't work when I'm touching her foot but she calms VERY quickly. I have been giving her Tylenol at times but I think for the next few days I am going to keep it (or Motrin) round the clock and see if that helps. Thank you to all of you for your support!

Guest guest Posted September 16, 2004 Report Share Posted September 16, 2004 Marilouise, At least she is trying to move around more now. It sounds as though she is making progress. I hope it gets better soon for the little angel.

Guest guest Posted September 16, 2004 Report Share Posted September 16, 2004 Hi ee, Yes, a little progress. In the DBB she still won't make any attempts to crawl. Will roll over in her crib but that's it. I think that is mostly due to not knowing she can do it yet. I am going to email Dr. H about the refusal (or my worry is the inability) to put weight on her left foot. And I don't like the intense screaming when I touch that foot. Seems over the top for just sensitivity, but again I really have no idea. I guess I'll see what he says.
