Ruby is 8 months old. When she was 5 months old she was diagnosed with hip dysplasia and put in a harness to correct her right hip. After two weeks the doctor felt this was not effective and Ruby was set in a spica cast for 12 weeks. Just last week that was removed and the x-rays look great. Now she has braces to keep her hip growing correctly. She has 4 to 6 hours of playtime out of her braces to strengthen her muscles. Within two days she was rolling over! Ruby has continued to be a happy baby through all her uncomfortable leg accessories.
