Lainee got a second cast put on Thursday. It went a lot smoother than I anticipated. She went back early. They got the iv in her hand on the first try! She got a bath! Annnnd another cast. Dr said the arthrogram went better than he anticipated. Her hip does not want to pop in and out of place, but the socket is still too shallow. But the cartilage around the bone is formed nicely and it's looking promising. Which meant he could cast her differently.
My little zombie baby. It looks like she's dragging her left leg. Or dancing. We'll go with zombie baby. But the cast is bigger in the waist - I can fit to my wrist down the front. And bigger in the feet. Probably because he knows if she has to spend 12 weeks straight in this one I'd knock him out with small feet openings. My baby isn't going to have purple feet this time.
The best part? She fits in her car seat! - the one made for all this. AND her high chair! I was so elated. That means probably no spica table. She goes back in 4 weeks for an x ray and to talk to him.
