Update on Eleanor

Little one doing MUCH better on tummy time!

Just the girls at home! I love to snuggle her!

Eleanor has a little lovey blanket that she likes to snuggle when I rock her!

Bath time! One of her favorite things!
Eleanor is doing much better and is responding to physical therapy quite well. The torticollis is just about worked out - she has almost full range of motion in her neck. The issue we are contending with now is her shoulder. Her right shoulder girdle is not as strong as it needs to be which means she's not weight-bearing through that shoulder and elbow when she's on her tummy. We have a WONDERFUL physical therapist who is coming to see her at the house three times a week to help strengthen and work with her, so we're hopeful we can work through this, as well! We'll go back the end of this month (the 30th) to reassess the shape of her skull to see how things are progressing in terms of the plagiocephaly. We're still hopeful that we won't have to do the helmet, but if we do, we know it's what's best for Eleanor - and that's all that matters!
