My 2 year old toddler broke her leg jumping off the sofa 7 weeks ago. Here's our recap video, to show the process of how quickly she learned to get around on her cast, and re-learning to walk again after 5.5 weeks in the cast. We hope it'll help other families not sure what to expect when their baby or toddler breaks a leg (apparently it's pretty common since bone strength comes from weight bearing, which little ones haven't had much of yet!). But don't worry, it's scary and sad but really not much of a big deal! Just watch our video to see how a broken leg didn't stop our little girl one bit!!

    Good to see your little one's progress! My 11-month-old just had her lower leg fracture yesterday. Your video comforts me a lot.

    Thank you so much for sharing this video with other people. We are at ER right now with my 4 y.o daughter. She jumped from monkey climbing and broke her leg, exactly like your daughter’s injury. Now, I can see our 6-7 weeks :)

    Hi!! My 24 months old baby girl had cast on her left leg for 4 weeks. After removing cast she doesn't want to walk for the first 4 days. Then she started standing, then slowly she started walking, but she is limbing. Now it is 2 weeks without cast, and she still limbs. I am so confused and worried about this? How many wks it takes to get ready?

    Thanks for posting! How long did it take your daughter to walk normally without a limp? Did she have any lasting affects from the injury? Knee and leg perform correctly? My 2yr old daughter just got her cast off a few days ago after having a buckle fracture on her tibia. She moves her leg well and bends, crawls without any issue but does not want to walk/stand on it. Just wondering your thoughts and anything you did to help her gain her mobility and confidence back.

    Hi my 4 years old had surgery last week but she's out of control for walking I just noticed a soft spot in her cast near the surgery area am really worried if it's OK or not? Can you please tell me if it's okay
  • My son's cast seems moved a little bit, should I go to the doctor to get it check
  • Not even leg in a cast can slow her down she's going super fast like nothing happened. Once I saw this episode of Rescue 911 and in the episode they were transporting race horses for the winter. And their trailer flipped onto its side and they open the tailored the Colt took off running that's normal for a horse because they're scared what they do when they're scared they take off running but his trailer mate she was stuck between the metal of the trailer. And they got her free and they were checking on her if she was okay she was after they checked out both of the horses they walked into trailer like nothing happened like the accident never existed. I was surprised.
