Matilda has a big team of specialists also, she sees a Neonate Paed, Cleft Paed, Plastics, Maxiofacial, ENT, Physio and OT, Speech and Dietican, Cardioligist, Nephrology and Respiratory.
I am happy that as she grows her appointments seem to be longer in between visits and we have finally got to the stage that we are able move to the country further from the hospital and I feel comfortable in doing so.
Annabelle, I would not call special needs however she was born with additional needs, spent time in hospital, had major surgery and still sees a cardiologist and dietican on a semi regular basis. If it wasn't for her visits to the cardioloigist (ultrasounds, ecgs) and watching her weight she would be a 'normal' baby. Our appointments have been pushed back to 3 monthly now and then they will go to 6 monthly and 12 monthy if all is well.
The girls are being rather fussy at the moment, I think they can feel that something is happening, with all the packing and me being so busy arranging everything for the move. It will be interesting to see how Matilda in particular handles the move.
Better go, Annabelle needs a feed.
It is lovely getting to know you and your children .
ETA - Sorry there were a couple of posts while I was typing, I will be back to read them later and aim for some personals .
