Sutton had his 6 month hip check up on January 14th. After reviewing the X-rays all the doctor said was "Dr.Zaltz was right". Dr. Zaltz has offered us a second opinion a couple of times. Nate and I are so glad that we decided to cancel the surgery that Sutton's doctor recommended he have last summer because at this point both of his hips are looking great!!! She wanted his acetabular index to be 26 or less and he is now at 24 on the right and 26 on the left. She was so pleased with how things look that she even stretched out our next visit to 9 months!! Now we will just continue to pray that he doesn't regress because she always reminds us that boys with hip dysplasia are unpredictable, but for now things are hippy!
