Wanted to see how your son is doing. Any changes with putting weight on his legs? Did you consult a PT yet? Just seeing how he's doing.

I was just thinking about this the other day. Hopefully you'll be able to share some good news, @MissMeegs‌.

Thanks so much for asking, sorry I have not been on here in a couple days. @peanutmuse thanks for checking in too!

He is doing really well, making big improvements. He still won't put much weight on his legs willingly on his own, but we're doing exercises that sort of force the issue and he's getting a lot better at those. He's to the point where he can "stand" quite well with the physical therapist holding his thighs/knees for some support. So he's definitely getting there, because he couldn't do that last week!

Also, not sure if it's coincidental or related to the PT (maybe a little of both), but he's MUCH more mobile while playing on the floor, rolling all around in both directions and "inching" on his back. It's kind of funny to me because most babies seem to do the inchworm thing on their bellies, but he does it on his back, pushing himself all around with his feet. It's cute!

@MissMeegs‌ - so glad to hear of the improvements!!! Looks like this are looking up! I'm sure it was amazing seeing how much more he's doing in a week's time.
