“Did I do something wrong?” 💭💔
If your child has been diagnosed with cerebral palsy, it’s normal to feel overwhelmed, confused — and even guilty. But here’s the truth:
➡️ Cerebral palsy is not your fault.
It’s the result of brain development differences or injuries — and often, the exact cause isn’t clear.
🧠 Some of the known risk factors include:
🧬 Genetic conditions or blood type incompatibility
🤰 Infections or complications during pregnancy
👶 Low birth weight, prematurity, or multiple births
⚠️ Jaundice left untreated after birth
💔 Intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR)
With the right support, children with cerebral palsy can thrive — and pediatric therapy can play a huge role in helping them reach their potential.
🧩 How pediatric therapy can help:
🗣️ Speech therapy for communication challenges
🧠 Occupational therapy for independence in daily tasks
🏃 Physical therapy to improve movement and coordination
