We're asking for a referral to an ENT tomorrow for JT because he's had four ear infection in 13 months. None of them have involved the actual eardrum; they've all been buildup behind the ear drum so tubes could help. Both my kids have also always loved the paper. Even at their sickest they go crazy kicking at the stuff.Carlahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05984557067655141677noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7502307737528869885.post-730236535412869212009-10-10T06:59:11.990-07:002009-10-10T06:59:11.990-07:00the pics remind of henry. he's obsessed with t...the pics remind of henry. he's obsessed with the paper, too. finnian is getting so big. he looks so much taller these days. and part of the no weight gain might be that he's just moving around more. <br /><br />i hate that he has to be sedated. anytime you have to do that stinks, but maybe it's a good thing since they can do the abr test done.heidi mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18072404035886142462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7502307737528869885.post-61434055437797030452009-10-09T06:42:55.804-07:002009-10-09T06:42:55.804-07:00crinkly paper!

I...Glad to hear the good news... and love the pics. I have the same exact pictures of Sheridan doing that with the exam room paper. What is it with that paper? It's like kids can't resist the stuff! As for the sedation... sorry it looks like Finn will have to go under. Sheridan was able to do an ABR while he was a bit sleepy and tired, and just laid in my arms pretty still. So I know it can be done without sedation (but he was MUCH younger then and likely wouldn't be so cooperative now at 13 months!).Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16749431284192436424noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7502307737528869885.post-55478543563901441732009-10-08T22:36:35.814-07:002009-10-08T22:36:35.814-07:00Love that he played with the paper with so much pa...Love that he played with the paper with so much passion.

He passed his newborn screening, right? Ds doesn't cause hearing loss. The hearing loss that's associated with Ds is when there is fluid in the ear. They won't do an ABR if there's fluid. It just seems counterintuitive.Meganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02985615916783160489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7502307737528869885.post-47169493999079929592009-10-08T17:38:42.738-07:002009-10-08T17:38:42.738-07:00I love how paper can be so entertaining!I love how paper can be so entertaining!A Lady Called Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18284930573110324032noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7502307737528869885.post-50497216331944830162009-10-08T17:03:30.386-07:002009-10-08T17:03:30.386-07:00Great pics,what is it with that paper?

From 12 to 15 months, John Michael lost weight and didn't grow in length at all. The doc said it was probably due to his increased movement (crawling) and reduction in calories. By 18 month check up, he made up for the loss. I'm glad you're not too worried... it seems like a common transition as he grows older. He's adorable as usual!Monica Crumleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11292679754594755040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7502307737528869885.post-80268796700550919632009-10-08T15:38:05.213-07:002009-10-08T15:38:05.213-07:00He's so cute.

Then I read that kids with DS have longer growth spurts and longer periods without growth than non-chromosomally enhanced :) kids, so their growth pattern is more of a stepped shape than a smooth curve. Wish I knew that BEFORE the worry!Melhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09066280828048359936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7502307737528869885.post-52630840478286262342009-10-08T15:07:08.228-07:002009-10-08T15:07:08.228-07:00Love the pics... he's wrecking the joint.

I guess some places have special machines that can get the results even if the kid is awake and moves a little bit. We ate puffs the whole time to stay "occupied".ds.mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08631570001473985562noreply@blogger.com
