You Make Me Feel Like Dancin'!

Gonna dance the night away.

From this at 4 months in the DB Bar Brace for his hip dysplasia to...
Taking his first steps with his walker! 
I tried to upload the video but Blogger was going mental.
He goes up and down the hallway (not great with steering just yet but getting there) and giggles and laughs the whole way.
I thought crawling was hectic but I foresee many, many "No Harvey!'s" in our future.
(not to mention, "be careful!!!", "Don't touch that!" and "Come here, Mummy will kiss it better...")

He's ace.
The hip is developing really well according to the specialist.
Some more x-rays over the next few years and lots of good growing and he'll be just fine.

Thanks for the enquiries and support.

    Our girl was in plaster for 18months for her CHD, she is now 32 and has achieved many many physical goals in her life including show jumping and gymnastics. Actually we attribute her beautiful straight back to her plaster time. She cam out great meanwhile I wonder what damage was dont to our hips lugging her around, LOL.
    Go Harvey!

    Oh so cute!! You are so excited about them walking until they run from you in a shopping centre, then you think, hmmm, or in my case, 4 running in opposite directions, just for a challenge.
    Great way to not say "no" is "how about this . . ." option, as they speed up towards danger, trust me, my children were climbers, jumpers, leapers & magically never had a broken bone??!! He's beautiful, love Posie

    Hi,

    Just happened across your blog and Harvey. My little man Oscar has been in the DBB for the last three weeks (he's a month old). I noticed that you either made or bought some pants that managed to fit well over the brace. If you purchased them can I ask where you found them? This colder weather is a bit of a clothing challenge!

    I was excited to read that you guys managed to come out of it fairly quickly - gives me some hope!! Thanks for sharing some of your journey.

    Em
