Busy Day w/ 3 Therapies!
Normally Cedie has TIPS on Mondays, OT on Tuesdays, ST on Thursdays, and PT on Fridays. However, due to various reasons, she ended up doing PT, ST, and TIPS all today.
PT went great! She was real excited to hear about Cedie sitting by herself during our appt yesterday! She is so proud of Cedie and how strong she is getting. Cedie did great during the whole 1 hour session.
ST was ok. She just gets really mad when the therapist messes with her mouth. Cedie is not opposed to putting things in her mouth (everything she touches seems to end up there these days) but she does not want to swallow! By the end of the session she was thru with all of us and was just ignoring everyone.
TIPS went extremely well! First, the therapist gave her some uncooked cinnamon to play with. This is a good sensory tool (and its ok to put in her mouth... which ofcourse she did). She really liked it! She was licking it and smiling. She even kicked her legs up and down in a "happy dance". The therapist had never seen her respond to something that well. Next we worked on sitting and she showed off a couple times like she did at the doctors! Go Cedie! Finally she was straddling over her memaw's leg (memaw came to watch) and was playing with a ballon. Next thing we knew, she pushed up onto the ball and STOOD up to look around. She stood there for a couple of minutes! She did this twice! What a big girl!
