Emily started walking this past week! She's taking more and more steps every day.
We had actually gotten a referral for ECI (early childhood intervention), just to make sure there wasn't anything wrong. We didn't think there was - Emily is just a very cautious child. And the way she scoots on her bottom allows her to carry things, so there wasn't any "need" for her to walk. But, we also didn't want to keep assuming there wasn't anything wrong and eventually have a 2-year-old who couldn't walk!
The OT came for an "intake meeting", which was just gathering information. But she couldn't do the eval until January! So she gave me some tips on how to work with Emily until then. Those few little tricks was all it took!
