Teaching Sitting to Standing From a Cube Chair: Physical Therapy for a Child with Down Syndrome #64
First, I want to thank Everett's family for inviting me, a stranger, into their home to help others. Thank you so much. Everett has Down syndrome. He was born almost 2 months premature. He had corrective heart surgery and has a G-tube. He is also absolutely adorable. Join me as I follow Everett over time, providing pediatric physical therapy treatment recommendations to help him get stronger, faster, and more mobile. I first met him when he was 11.5 months old. I am so excited to see him grow and change over time.

    I was told my child didn't have torticollis by my pediatrician, however, he preferred his head to the right. He could move his head both ways, but was always to the right when sleeping. He now has plagiocephaly that has gotten noticeable. We've worked on neck and head rotation, he's doing better, but he's now 4.5 months and still isn't rolling. I've noticed he's very stiff in his trunk, and has a hard time reaching, especially reaching in front when on tummy. He's barely moving his left arm. I've been trying to do the trunk rotation and it's so hard since he does not sit still, and throws his weight around a lot.

    I'm 37 and I think I'm an undiagnosed toe walker mild to moderate. It's much more noticeable in bare feet. My pediatrist says my feet and calves are overly ridgid. All he can suggest is "shockwave therapy" for thousands more dollars. I have terrible hip pain since childhood with dozens of different nonsense diagnosis... Every doctor has something else to sell me yet none of it helps and I'm completely out of money to keep giving to them. They all want to cut me somewhere different . I was born strangled and blue with my umbilical cord around my neck which can't be great.

    This is SO important! I am 60 years old with mild CP, that went largely ignored from about age 14 on. I thought I had experienced all the limitations I was going to have. Then in my 50s I developed an unexplained early bladder failure. It did not occur to me to even consider premature aging as a result of my cerebral palsy. My urologist just said following extensive testing that he could not explain why someone at my young age has the bladder of an 80-year old. Likewise I had previously gone to a physical therapist around age 50 due to hip and back pain because my hips were out of alignment. When I struggled to perform basic pelvic exercises the male therapist seemed dumfounded and actually said, "I thought you said you had kids? It is similar to that motion. How can you not understand that function?" Said in a guy to guy funny kind of way. I was so humiliated, I never went back to him. Then another physical therapist referred me to a Neuro-physical therapist who was amazing! She was the first person to explain that all of these issues were linked to my cerebral palsy that was presenting advanced symptoms as I got older. So here I was in my 50's suddenly re-engaging in research and information on cerebral palsy as a middle-aged man. I am not sure if I was previously in denial, but I finally had an explanation for my chronic joint pain and bladder failure. I never considered myself disabled because I was not in a wheelchair. I had always had a pronounced limp and loss of muscle control on my left side, with slow motor skills, but my speech and quick wit were always intact. Hearing this news at 57 from a neuro-therapist was a Godsend. I finally had an answer and I cried tears of joy from relief because it wasn't anything stupid I had done to cause that. Rather, it was just who I was. I was born that way, and that brought so much peace of mind. Now I embrace and own my disability and am so glad there is a community of people, like me discussing this. Thank you for sharing this story.

She is turning both ways now, she is also sitting unsupported playing with toys infront of her for about 10 min before she starts to falter. She carries her weight on her legs when standing. We are now starting to make the connection between tummytime and sitting. Propping up more etc. She is 11 months with downs syndrome. I think I found your videos 3 months ago.

    My son toe walks. Hes autistic. I did as well as a girl but didnt know then Im on the spectrum too. His autism is just fsr more obvious than mine. The puzzling thing is he absolutely didnt do it as a baby but it started when he was 10 or so. Hes 15 now. The toe walking is what immediately upon lookin at him gives away that hes autistic and people perceive him being pretty severe maybe even more severe than he actually is. What I mean is even if people shouldn't judge we live in a world where they are going to. Hes 6'1 taller than most grown men and if he keeps doing toe walking its going to make everything in his life harder. His physical health, his ability to be perceived as capable by employers, his ability to even make friends. I do wish he would stop like I found a way to mostly stop (I may still do it around house a little) but not in public.

    What if the case was: kid doesnt have the skill to roll, nor he holds up his head while on tummy.? A preterm baby 5 .3 m

      Then I would recommend finding a local pediatric therapist who can assist you. It is important to perform exercises at the right level. Here is this child’s playlist from when I had difficulty getting him to hold up his head while on his tummy and difficulty rolling. Maybe it will be some assistance for you.

    My baby tilt towards left and also prefers to turn her head always towards left . Is it left torticollis or right torticollis ? Please help me

    • @pediatricPTexercises
      @pediatricPTexercises Месяц назад

      Torticollis is defined by which way a baby tilts. I stretch away from the tight direction. I recommend you consult with a local therapist who can assist you with the specifics of your child’s case.

    Do you need to repeat Alexis diagnosis to her every time if it’s in the description?

    • @pediatricPTexercises
      @pediatricPTexercises Месяц назад

      Very few people read the description and often people do not follow her videos and may have seen it for just the first time. So, yes I think it is important. I am sorry it is frustrating for you.
