Okay... I've finally got my computer to behave, so I can type out a long comment with lots of photos!

Jyoti: Are you getting any benefits at all from the stretches you have been doing? I don't mean, are you getting more flexible, but are you feeling better at all? Does it seem like the stretches are helping you in some way? If not, I think it's time to take a break. Maybe just focus on something else for a while. I'm starting to see some research that suggests that doing lots and lots of stretching can interfere with the body's ability to build strength. I'm not sure that stretching is what you need now. That is just my opinion though.

haldox: I can reach the back foot if it's the non-THR leg that is behind me. If it's the THR side back there, I can connect my hand and foot, but I can't quite grab on. For now, I'm using a belt to pull that leg in more.

C Mac: and @
The Cappuccino Kid: Try out this stretch for me:
You're looking for an inner thigh stretch in the straight leg. Don't lock your knee and keep your toes pointing straight ahead or in slight external rotation.
Cardie, can you stand with your legs in lateral rotation like this?
Sorry about the photo. I'm in a hurry and it's the best one I could find at the moment. Imagine you are standing on a clock. Your face is pointing at 12 o'clock. What times are your feet pointing at?
Cappy, are you able to do this stretch?
