Baby, you're a firework

More about Asymmetry, I believe this was Pip's diagnosis.

☆Asymmetry

Asymmetrical buttock creases can suggest hip dysplasia in infants but, like a hip click, an ultrasound or x-ray study will need to be done to determine whether the hips are normal or not.

Asymmetrical gluteal creases may be a sign of hip dysplasia in one hip. Thigh folds (seperate from gluteal folds) that are asymmetrical rarely indicate hip dysplasia unless they are associated with uneven gluteal creases.

When a baby’s hip dislocation is present for several months, the hips gradually lose range of motion and the leg appears shorter because the hip has migrated upward.

Last night was more pirate fun and fireworks. Compared to my son's first experience - cue horror screams, Pip's experience went very well! She was attempting to eat when they started. I expected crying. She pulled away from the bottle and just stared. Big, beautiful blue eyes staring in awe at these lights in the sky. Didn't even care about the booms. She did get fussy halfway through because she was tired and hungry and couldn't make up her mind which she wanted. But overall she was decent out yesterday compared to how the day was at home. Makes the final of the pirate escapades. A skirmish between the pirates and the mayor. I'm sure Alek will love it!
