I do hope that people are still reading my progress. I need some advise. Astrid has been crossing her legs while squatting (while standing she is in sitting position). She has been doing this for awhile and I'm getting concerned. Eric and I have asked our pediatrician and she has said that there is nothing to worry about. Is it a bladder infection? Is it holding her pee/poop, and trying to control herself? I find myself constantly worried and I fear looking at the internet because it is telling me some dreadful stuff. I feel embarrassed even mentioning this, but could it be CP? She looks uncomfortable but not in pain. She is probably in this position for 60% of the day. I am hoping that it is a phase that she is going through ... I'm hoping that it is her trying to control her peep/poop. It looks odd and it looks abnormal. Should I be worried? She doesn't have a fever. She doesn't seem to be distressed. She crosses her legs over (sometimes twice) and she stands with back very stiff and in sitting position. She's been doing this for awhile. I"m a little nervous and it's overwhelming me. Is it just her going through the motions of learing how to control herself and the process of potty training?
