Madison's Therapy

So M had her Physical Therapy evaluation today. The lady was really nice and M was so good, she only got fussy at the end and it was more cuz she was so tired. They said the same thing I've been saying lately it seems to be mostly in her hips & waist area. She did recommend Physical Therapy 2 times a week (though she said once a week was fine) it had something to do with if she did HAVE to have it more it would be easier w/the insurance. I'm suppose to be doing anything to move those hips. Right now she does Frog legs. Think of how a frog has its legs (<>) that's how hers are. So if she's on her back I'm to try and straighten them and also stretch them up toward her head more. Right now she can only get them to go straight up in the air nothing really toward her head. Then when I have her sitting in my lap I'm to make her put her feet ON the ground. I guess that moves the muscles, not sure just what it is doing, but I'll do it anyways.wink And she also thinks her rolling is more of and accident thing then her wanting to do it since she only does it once. So for the moment I have about a month before the therapy opens up again to figure out how to pay for it. All in all I think it went good.
