well for a while now we have thought Miss M has some hearing problems.
if she cant see you or feel you she doesn't react to your voice.
she passed her new born screen but now isn't talking or really reacting to voice commands or anything.
she will turn to a loud noise, but if there is any background noise she wont.
praying there isn't any hearing loss :(
but if there is hope we have caught it early enough to prevent any learning disabilities and developmental delays
Ohh I hope she passes and that she is just being tempremental (sp?). DD1 passed her screening test but failed the follow up test, DD2 is considered high risk due to her time intubated at birth and the AB's for more than so many days, she was meant to be tested last week but it has been postponed until March.
When is Miss M's test?
Best of luck xx
i am booking it in tomorrow while im at work.
i faxed the referral over today..
hope its in early jan before she is 13 months as they then go and do it differently
oh GL hun!!!
i had the same thing from 8 months my youngest ds was doing the same thing he had absolutly no balance at all he would fall staright over he couldnt sit up unassited even at 18 months old he would fall n instead of falling on his bum he would fall staright back n smash his head or fall forward anyway really he would run n fall off to the side or just flip straight over i used to cry he always looked like someone was belting him aourn his head.. he would sit right on top the tv unit to see the shows like he couldnt hear them n mind u it would be blarring.. he also never responded to me ever unless he could see my mouth moving n he would come up to my face n put his hands on my mouth while i spoke its like he relied on vibration alot he would put his hands on the floor n wait n then get up n go towards wat eva it was he felt moving..
i took him to one out at randwick n he did the test n he responded to NOTHING wat so ever... i was devastated i was crying as they get u to sit behind him so he cant see u or so u dont guide them to the noise n someone plays with them n they have this speaker next to them that plays the noise n when ever they react they see all these lights n puppets etc.. my son had 25% hearing in one ear n practically 5% in the other...
i had to give him all these meds n stuff in his ears n also go to ENT's for months n months he suffered quiet alot..
he now has 87% in one n 92% in the other but i prefer that then nothing
i hope everything works out n just stay positive these ppl are great i couldnt thank them enough..
Hoping that all is well babe :hug:
Good luck, I hope it goes well.
Fingers crossed it's nothing permanent.
Just wanted to pop in and see if you had your appt, and how it all went??
Hope evrything is all good :D
