NO MORE BRACE!!!

On Tuesday, Maci and Clint went for an afternoon ultrasound to check Maci's hips 2 1/2 weeks from the last appointment.  I was quite anxious as we are all at our wits end with the darn brace.  Then on Wednesday morning we went to an appointment with her ortho specialist and GREAT news the hips are normalized!!!  Maci is now out of the brace!!!  In order to ween her out of it, she will wear it to bed for 3 weeks but then no more :)  Daycare was quite happy to see her without the brace too and they said she has been so much happier the rest of the week!  Our little girl is now a wiggle machine!!

We will go back in July (2 months) for a base line X ray and then she will get checked around 1 year and then about every year until age 8 or so.  This is just to ensure they would never revert back but the ortho said 99% stay normalized and she doubts Maci would have any issues since she is so strong and has good joints!!!!  Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh SOoooooooooooooo Happyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy
