Life without the Harness

So, I'm a bit behind on updates.  Elsie has been out of her harness for 3 entire weeks as of today!  What a blessing.  I remember with my oldest daughter, Mila, baths, changing clothes and even changing diapers seemed inconvenient.  However, after 10 weeks in a harness and doing the same tasks - they are much easier without the harness and no longer seem inconvenient. 


I saw on pffd.org that another mom's child was in a harness.  She too could understand the desire to have a squishy baby 24-7.  Let me tell you, it's been a great blessing to have her back to normal! 


Since taking her out of the harness we haven't seen any signs of pain.  It is evident that whether dysplasia or fracture or  whatever, the harness did the trick! 


Here is a picture of Elsie the last time she wore the harness!  How cute :)

It was a good time to go because Little E was about to outgrow it!

The only difficulty we faced from losing the harness was Elsie was use to sleeping in it for 10 of her 11 week life.  The straps kept her legs in the air (as shown above) the entire night.  So the first week without the harness Elsie had a hard time staying asleep.  She expected her legs to levitate :)  But we've worked through that and sleep is back to normal. 

Needless to say, we haven't missed the harness!
