Not Broken...But Broken

Such a long day for this little cutie. She woke up crying quite a bit so I immediately scheduled a visit at my doctor's office. They are set up to do everything like an instacare...without all the waiting and expensive copays. So we saw the pediatrician there and got x-rays. She didn't see any fractures so she told us most likely she dislocated the elbow but it popped right back in . She sent us home to just be careful. I wasn't totally convinced about that so as soon as we got back in the car I wrapped it back up like we had it and headed home. She did pretty good at home, although she wouldn't move her arm much and complained about how much it was hurting. Well we got a call in the evening from the doctor and it turns out that the radiologist looked over the x-rays and found a fracture. I knew it! I hated that I was right but in my gut I just felt like it was not ok. They did a half cast and we will decide in 7-10 days if she needs a hard cast or if the half cast will be ok. My mom was so sad to hear that she got hurt so she stopped by and brought her a little beanie boo lady bug. So cute!
