Update on Kaitlyn's Hip

We just got back from the doctor's office and everything seems to be ok. Kaitlyn was seen by a different doctor since ours is on a two week leave as his wife is having a little girl. The doctor was great and took extra time to double and triple check and nope, no click to be heard. She even took some time to show me some of the signs that something could be amiss including watching to make sure her folds in her thighs were at the same place on both legs, making sure her knees lined up and some other little things. She did recommend we continue double diapering for another month and then book a followup appointment with our doctor. She said that Kaitlyn is very healthy and her ear infection has cleared up as well. As far as the night time wakings, that seems to be attributable to teething. My mom took a look in her mouth too and thinks her top tooth will probably pop through today. Let's hope so - I cannot take the 2 a.m., 4 a.m., 6 a.m. crying anymore! Anyways, better go - Kaitlyn looks like she's about to pass out in her exersaucer. Busy day for this little girl.

I am so glad that this doctor was so thorough. That will definitely help set your mind at ease - especially if you can make sure that things are progressing nicely also. Yay! Glad to hear she is doing better. That is always stressful.
