Physical Therapy

Hailey had her first PT appointment on Monday. Things went really well. The therapist, Karen, was very impressed with the amount of movement she does have. Karen doesn't feel that Hailey's gross motor is that far off from where she should be. Karen did mention that she seems to not think about how to get her body to move in certain ways because she is so focused on getting what she wants. For instance if Hailey is reaching for a toy and gets on her hands and knees, she can't figure out how to get both legs behind her. Rather than focusing on her leg she is focused on the toy. Karen also saw her stubborn side and recognized that Hailey is only going to do things when and if she wants to. Oh joy for us!
