We had a great 2nd post-op check-up. Her femur bone and hip are in place as they should be and the cast is still nice and stiff.
We checked with the doc about her discomfort over the last two days from what appears to be gas. He didn't seem overly concerned about it. (We have been giving her gas drops and trying to burp it out of her before she goes down for the night.)
He also lifted all restrictions which means she can now sit upright (in a spica chair, in the lap, in my arms etc) and can go on her tummy for easier diaper changes.
We are penciled in for March 16th for a cast change. The doc's office is going to place the order for the goretex liner (highly recommend it, it's not that expensive). But Dr Konigsberg also said that we can come in earlier for a change if she seems too uncomfortable.
