Our Bow Legged Girl!!



So we had Maddalyn's PT appointment today. She is definitely bow legged. She has a curve to her upper leg bone, her lower leg bone, and also her foot turns in. Both legs are affected, but the left is definitely worse. We are hoping she grows out of it and no braces or casts are needed. The dr. said it probably developed in utero. Which if you remember when she was born, she slept with her legs overlapping indian style. We noticed it but thought nothing of it. She is growing so fast, turning into such a mischievous little girl. If she wasn't getting into trouble and trying to run away, we probably wouldn't have noticed this early. Upon her get away she gets going too fast and falls.

What a cute little outfit and pretty blue eyes! That stinks about her legs. When Donna was that age she broke her arm and it healed crooked... they said they would have to re-break and cast it but she grew out of it! Hopefully Maddy will too :)
