[tri-med] Re: curved spines ( re claire and our kids)

>>>>>>>>>.  We just 
noticed this week that her spine was beginning to bow too much and her 
PT feels (and I have to agree) that it's partly because we've been 
trying to work with Keren so hard on sitting up<<<<<<<<<<<<

I would get her spine x-rayed.  Rebecca has kyphosis, scoliosis, and
lordosis and has had these curves in her spine for ever it seems.  We
have always been aware of it but when ever I asked about getting it
checked they the PT/OT would say well its not to bad ect finally I
pushed for it and we are now seeing a orthopaedic doctor to assess the
degrees of her curves and I really do wish I had pushed for x-rays when
she was younger so we would have had a better baseline. There are others
on this list as well that have issues with curvature of the spine
