Paisley had her first session with her physical therapist last Thursday. Of course BCW was about 30 minutes wait so once again my baby was waiting on Babies CAN'T Wait. Not that we've had any problems like this before...
The visit with te physical therapist did go quite well. Paisley really enjoyed all the attention. The therapist worked with her on sitting on her knees (not a fun activity in Paisley' opinion) and being able to sit up on her own. Paisley started sitting up on her own on Wednesday twice and since her visit with BCW she is basically a sitting up pro!
The therapist stayed with Paisley for about an hour and she'll be back this Wednesday. Since Paisley is now sitting up on her own they will focus more on banging toys together and crawling.
Funny story, while BCW was here on Wednesday, Paisley decided she could not use her left hand. I'm not sure exactly what her problem was but she absolutely refused to do aything with her left hand. When she would roll she acted like her left hand was just in her way and no use to her. The therapist asked me if she it was common for her to not use her left had and I told her no. Of course as soon as the therapist left Paisley once again had a fully functioning left hand.
Overall the visit was a success and Paisley will continue to progress.
Paisley is doing so well. The EEG is done and now waiting... what's new????
ReplyDeleteBonnie, Gerry and esp. Paisley have been so strong throughout this crisis. They make my heart sing. Seems Paisley just needs to be told what is expected, ie roll, sit up, eat, and she gets busy getting it done. I am so proud of this sweet family.
