Bath time has been another issue. We can not get the cast wet at all. What I do is lay her on the counter while holding her head over the sink. That is the easiest way to wash her hair. As for washing her body, I stand her up in the sink and wash her from the waist down. She hates having her hair washed so she totally hates this new way of bath time!
We have had extra OT and the therapist is thrilled to see the movement in her hand. She is still have some trouble keeping her thumb out but we have some stretchy therapy "tape" that is helping keep it out. Over all, we are thrill with the progress. I can't wait to see where we are at in four weeks! :)
I am glad to hear that things are still going well. You are doing a wonderful job.
