Hi, I have another thread about ds1 and the issues we face with him under my normal nn HugAndRoll. This thread is about my ds2.
He has always been quite floppy in the joints but we didn't really think anything of it. He's 11 months old on Sunday and still not weight bearing on his legs at all and we noticed his feet would be in very strange angles etc so he had a physiotherapy appointment today.
The physiotherapist checked him over and observed him and said he is hypermobile throughout his body, particularly shoulders, wrists, ankles and hips.
We were told he will more than likely walk but it would take a lot of extra work and time. She is seeing him again in 4 weeks, we have exercises to do at home, she is referring him to a paediatrian and will visit his nursery to demonstrate the exercises.
I was just wondering if anyone has experience of this and if you have any tips/advice etc.
