Guest guest Posted December 18, 2003 Report Share Posted December 18, 2003 Dear Michele, Nice reply and many things to note. Eagerly waiting to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Though my mom wants to take care of him, I even dropped my idea of working because I don't want to leave Mihir with my mom/ daycare with his conditions. (I didn't tell my mom abt Mihir's condition as she was in her early stage of Parkinson's L -- didn't want to give a burden) Just want to ask u one thing—did ur daughter respond to ANY sort of sound when she is small—say like mihir is now—3 months old? Because when I talk to Mihir, he smiles back at me, he does this all the time, also when my dad called him from his back when he is on the bed lying, he did look up, like how we respond. I received some brochures from California state hearing center yesterday; I have to go thru them. Will certainly make sure Mihir gets his aids soon. Mihir is 7lb when he was born, I tried to nurse, but did not work out, so I am pumping and giving the bottle. Initially there was a problem with bottle nipple, he did not gain enough weight, once we changed the nipple it worked, and he drank abt 2oz of milk in 20min or so. From the past 2 weeks he is so naughty taking only abt 15ozs a day, taking 1oz in 5-10min, chewing the nipple and doing all nasty things, plays for a while—finally it takes abt 45 min to feed 2 oz. I am so tired of this and went for weight check up and his DOC said he gained little but not as expected L some how I am continuing …-- today he called and said he is referring him to a feeding specialist— saying there MIGHT be a palate problem. I did order CHARGE manual & am waiting for it. Hari, Mihir's mom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
