Daughter seeing consultant today about his damaged little arm. Could be tissue damage. Don't think it was a break after all according to X-ray. I'm going to ring D soon to find out so will let you know. Had lots of cuddles with him yesterday and changed his nappy. He is such a little sweetie. I am so in love with him already! X

Broken bones are extremely unusual in newborns.....extremely, as many of them haven't ossified ( formed true bone) and hence "bend " rather than break.

Sqad, I don't know for sure but it could be Erb's Palsy.

Erb's Palsy

Sqad

Ah!....that makes sense......nothing to do with broken bones, but a complication of forceps delivery affecting the nerves in the armpit.
He may need some physiotherapy at some time.
