nah.. more info on the spread legged baby...
mesti ade je orang akan cakap...
baby terkangkang (by babywearing), nanti jalan kengkang...
it's too easy to make that correlation...

so I asked this question at the babywearers meet last saturday....
this one lady.. hanim.. is a doctor... she said its actually good for the baby... to prevent hip dyslasia...
aku dgr2 gitu la.. coz i know i wouldnt understand it anyways...
and she gave me these links...

previous entry was on how front, face to face carry is actually beneficial to prevent hip dysplasia...
here is more info on that...

and here is therapy for babies that have evidence of hip dysplasia (instability)...
http://www.hip-baby.org/pavlik.html



kena pakai brace lagi bagi tolong maintain kangkang and kaki lipat....
seperti previous post cakap..position ni favors healthy development... and an appropriate way to prevent hip dysplasia."




and u know what.. my mommy instict says its fine and natural....
for babies to be in this kaki bent and spread position....
kenapa kita kena sebok2 nak kasik tulang baby tu lurus
(by bedung and stuff)???
aku bedung gak.. tapi mainly nak kasik baby dok diam, no flayling arms sana sini... nyenyak sket tido...
but ive heard people nak bedung kasik tangan and kaki lurus aa...

hope this info will help babywearing mamas fend off those "kangkang nanti kengkang" commments ... hubbies should help explaining this info tooo...

knowledge is POWER!!!
