2.5 year NICU check-up

Charlie just had his last official NICU check-up and we are in the clear!!  He tested above average for a "normal" child in his age group for motor skills and speech, and tested average in the cognitive area.  The neurologist had absolutely no concerns and told us that it wasn't necessary to come back unless we have concerns in the future.  They were very impressed and so were we!  It is amazing to see what your child can do when being neurologically tested. I never knew he could do some of the things that he did.  This was quite the milestone in Charlie's life and it is so exciting to think about how many more he will have in the future.  Cheers to Charlie!

  1. My baby was born with her cord wrapped around her neck. She's currently being cooled for her 2nd day.

    I am so scared and your story makes me feel so much better about all this.

    They think she hasn't had any seizures and she was opening her eyes and blinking and looking at my husband when he went to see her in the nicu.

    She sucks a pacifier too.

    After she was resuscitated she just stared off and didnt react to the needles they were giving her or anything.

    Is it possible to talk more with you about your sin and his progress.

    Our daughter had a ultrasound of her brain last night and today we go in to talk to the dr bout the results.

    Her MRI won't be for a little while

    I've been pumping every 2 hours to get ready for when she can eat.

    I hope you're sill in here because I really need someone to talk to. Especially someone who has such a positive story.

    Thanks Can you email me at kristindegeit@live.ca
