Update on Avery's Torticollis

Avery saw her PT yesterday and as far as her Torticollis is going...she sees no improvement. Ugh. I kind of feel like a failure because I am really trying to work on her stretches and doing all I can do, give her tummy time and her massages. So, I need to work harder. The good thing is that she showed me a new stretch to do which Avery loves. She also showed me a couple other things to do which Avery can handle. When Avery starts to sit up on her own, she will be doing a lot of the stretching on her own and, by then, hopefully she will start to improve faster. Right now, we are doing the stretching for her. She normally hates her stretches and the PT said we have to stretch her even if she cries which makes it harder to do. I am so thankful that I can stay home now and work more with Avery and just be home with the kids. Although it is not easy, it really is a blessing as I feel my heart belongs here at home with them.

Here are some updated pictures of our sweet peas...
