our story

We welcomed our second daughter Annabelle on February 18, 2012, a week before her due date. That same day, the pediatrician felt a click in her right hip ...

... it was never felt again. An x-ray the same day showed nothing, so we weren't too concerned. We had a follow-up ultrasound when she was 6 weeks old, and it showed that *BOTH* of her hips are dislocated. (a condition called Develomental Dysplasia of the Hip or DDH)

Healthy Hips

We had our first no-intervention checkup today with Dr Olney.  Annabelle has been out of her brace for a little over a month. 
Her hips are healthy.
Her hips are perfect.
WE HAVE HEALTHY HIPS.
I'm crying tears of joy as I write this.
