Xander was evaluated for physical therapy at daycare (he's 4.5 months) and it was suggested that he could benefit from it because he has "lower muscle tone than expected." We were just at the pediatrician a couple of weeks ago and my pediatrician didn't ask me if he could do anything that he couldn't do, so I wasn't overly concerned. Today, I told the daycare to let them know we wouldn't be doing physical therapy, and the woman I spoke to mentioned that Xander can't support his weight on his legs at all and his legs just go limp when you try to put weight on them.
So... now I'm concerned (but I have already missed the window to do the physical therapy - would've needed to turn in the paperwork already). When were your LOs able to bear weight on their legs? Did anyone else have a 4+ month old that couldn't? Did you do anything to improve it? How are they now? Please let me know I haven't totally f'd up Xander already by not doing this physical therapy...
