Hip dysplasia

So Addie is currently in a Pavlik harness for treatment of hip dysplasia. She has been in it going on 3 months already and it has for sure been a challenge. She has it on 24/7 and just recently I have been able to take her out of it long enough to give her a real bath instead of a sponge bath. She cant wear all the many cute clothes she got from everyone. I have been putting a lot of clothes in storage that she never got to wear because they are to small now! At her last appointment with the specialist, he said that there has been progress and starting Febuary 16th she can be out of her harness for 8 hours a day but has to be in it for the remainder. On March 17th is her next appointment, at that appointment we get to find out if we have to continue or what!

Don't worry, I'm totally that flexible too! She must have gotten it from her auntie...
