| This was the first day Bug tried the Rifton. Her eyes are dilated and slightly crossed from the ERG she had done that morning, discussed in a previous post. |
Pros on this walker: It hold her in really well, we love the seat that supports her weight, and we really love how easy it is for her to move around.
Cons: It is very big. It takes up a lot of room front to back so she doesn't get to move very far before the long front bars bump into something.
Here's a video we captured of her at the end of her first week borrowing the Rifton. She's mostly bunny-hopping at this point but she's grasping the concept of movement!
Towards the end of the second week borrowing it, she started taking a few real steps!
We're waiting on a rep to get a Kidwalk gait trainer for us to try, we'll let you know what we think of that one compared to the Rifton and which one we'll go with.
There are several out on the market that are available but these are the 2 that are highly recommended by all of Bug's therapists so we'll be trying both of them before making a decision!
