Hands and Knees

I had a feeling James could do more than he let on which was certainly true when it came to crawling.  We had lost hope that he would truly crawl and not just army crawl.  There aren't many fun activities for strengthening the core while up on hands and knees.  But his physical therapist brought arm immobilizers so that James would have to be up if he wanted to move.  It worked really well!  The video below is his first attempts.  He has gotten really good and can crawl that same distance no problem.  It is still difficult to get him moving on hands and knees without the immobilizers, but he is getting in the right position and also using it to pull himself up into standing.



With love.
