Greetings,

Just an update on our little fella...He is still not walking, and is still flipping or falling on his side if he is not in his holding box. We constructed a walkway for him to practice in out of 2 x 4's .He just kind of bobbles back and forth between the two narrow walls. I guess I have to say he is improving a tiny bit. But just not sure how much more he will. He walks quite well if I lend my hand to keep him balanced. I'm thinking of constructing some type of duck walker. Crazy I know! Any ideas??? I was thinking about some type of adjustable velcro belt to go around the midsection, with two support type dowels on each side for him to bounce back and forth......send ideas my way.

Thanks so much`

Kris

Sorry to hear he is not doing much better! Wish I had ideas, but am sure somebody will. Have you seen those little "hula hoops" Only about 2' across? maby you could come up with something with one of those. Kind of like the old style baby walkers? They could be cut down to a smaller size...???
