Navya's Therapy Schedule

 

Too hectic :( ???

Body Suit Makeover

To add some fun element to the boring body suit, we painted some of Navya's fav. things on it.
This is how it looks now

 Two most fav. things on the arms(someone is going to turn 3 very soon)

Time to Lick :p

Mamma Fish and baby fishes

Pajama Party in School & Update on body suit

That sounds so cool.

Navya has Pajama Party today. We were asked to send a baby pillow, baby blanket, night time book/toy and toothbrush. And of course the kid in night dress.

Hope her day is fun filled.

Update on Body Suit: After initial disliking, now Navya insists to wear it for long time. This girl amazes us.
Not sure what has worked. But looks like the suit has become little loose, so she is more comfortable.

There have been suggestions that we paint it so that it looks more interesting to her. Nice Idea, might just work on it this weekend.

Anybody for Scuba diving???

No. That's not a scuba diving suit. :)

That's a special body suit to help Navya build better muscle tone. Our tummy is still a big concern, it gives stress on her backbone and also causes balance issues. 2 + years into PT, we are still called Marshmallow :).

Navya is supposed to wear it 6-7 hours daily. I was worried and I quickly asked the doc "Can she wear it when she is sleeping?".
"NO". Of course no, she has to wear it when she is physically active. The material of the suit is lycra+COTTON <- so thankful for this one and it's no more humid hot here, so I hope my little baby will get adjusted to it comfortably.
Today is the first day of this experiment, we are starting with 2 hours. Hope all goes well.

**********************UDATE*****************************
This body suit was suggested by Navya's PT. It is a pressure garment, we are told that when you wear a compression garment and do some physical activity in it, the blood pressure increases and your muscles work thus gain some strength.
We  have a orthopedic doctor who makes our orthotics, he got it stitched. Please let me know in case you need the details of the doctor. I guess you will have to come to the clinic to give your measurements, as detailed measurements are taken. The measurement and cutting of cloth is done here in Mumbai and sent to Delhi for stitching.The body suit has internal padding for zip area and they have put in all efforts to make the suit comfortable.Do write me on pallavi1609@gmail.com to get the doctor's phone number

Navya's adjustment Period
She could wear it only for 1.5 hours yesterday. Will post here once she gets adjusted to it
