A little news...

And good news at that too. Delighted to say I'm 6 1/2 months pregnant and baby is due in July. Obviously getting that hip fixed was a good idea and I have no doubt that if I hadn't a pregnancy would have been rather more difficult than it is. So, the replaced hip has behaved very well so far and I'm crossing my fingers that it continues that way. My OS thinks there's no reason why I can't try for a normal delivery so am hopeful that this will be the case.

The right hip (also dysplastic and structurally worse than the left) is also holding up so far, helped by the fact I have managed to keep my weight gain under control - only 11 lbs so far. I'm still walking a lot every day and not having any real problems with that.. yet.

Will keep you all posted as to how things progress..
