My poor wee man was very sore tonight. His skin was very red under his arms and round his middle. His belly button was very red, especially the creases. It hasn't been like this since he was newborn. He was holding his arms with his elbows up high and looked like an American footballer. He's been very tired this afternoon - it must be very tiring to carry such a weight and have to deal with the inconvenience of not bending. Each time he falls I would imagine the cast must jar/chafe.
I rang the hospital and they said to take him in tomorrow morning. They'll put more felt around the cast rim and give us some cream.
He found it very hard to sit in his high chair tonight - he normally slouches in it and with the cast he looked very uncomfortable and was crying to get down. I ended up feeding him at a little coffee table with him standing!
