Hello all Ive been on the 3-6 bored and now I realized I should come on here too since I can relate to everyone.

LO was born at 35 weeks he didnt have to be in the NICU or anything but he does have a heart murmur that he was born with and needs to be corrected with open heart surgery which is schedualed for December 10th.

He was diagnoesed with DiGeorge Syndrome which one of the symptoms is the heart defect. He looks and acts like a normal baby but is a little bit behind (at least i feel like he is compaired to other babys is age)

I wanted to ask how do you determine your LOs age

the birth age and the adjusted age.

 

Thanks!

first of all, your son is adorable! what a pumpkin!!!

 the actual age is how old they actually are. the adjusted age is how old they would be if they had been born on their due date. so, my son was 8 weeks early. so he is 23 months actual and 21 months adjusted.
