Double jointed just means that the joint flexes both ways. Have you ever seen a contortionist? Have you ever had a friend who could bend a finger all the way back without pain?

I seriously just thought Noah was extremely flexible, being a baby and all... lol.

And yes, what ReenaC said

Sorry that my post didn't come out sounding so right. It's hard to relay what I was thinking in response to your post, when I have to type it as opposed to speaking it. What I ment was they were able to find out that he was double jointed so early. That's good. At least he doesn't have any thing that would be very worry-some. Also I didn't know that they could figure out young babbies/toddlers were double jointed so young since they tend to be very flexiable, considering they have more cartledge then bone. The doctors never figured out I was double jointed till I was like 13! Maybe he could take gymanstic classes when he's older? If he's extremly double jointed he might be a very talented gymnist? He could have a head-start on the other children in the class, lol. Glad to hear he didn't have anything worry-some or dangerous. Hope he can figure out how to walk soon. Once he starts he'll never want to stop! lol

They can tell because when he is standing his knees tend to look very odd, his legs aren't straight and they kind of bend too far the wrong way... I guess it was just very obvious. lol. Thank you, I am glad also... I knew there was a reason why he just couldn't do it and it had to be more than him not wanting to.
