My ten day old baby has a hand that she cant use. Its got a slight curve to it. No swelling that I can see but still she cant move the fingers. Will send a pic after I go feed them. BTW My pinkies lived!

If you were to (gently) pinch the fingers, is there any reaction?

She certainly has feeling in her hand. She pulled it away when I pinched it. Here are some pictures:

That is really odd looking...
Hard to tell if it's a deformity, dislocation or break.
It almost looks like her wrist has been smashed or
there's no joint in her wrist.
I would think an x-ray would be needed to really
know what's going on in there.
