Parenting after 35

XP-AW: Boys had their Developmental Evaluation yesterday ...

... and we are SO incredibly pleased.  We were so worried, but truly had no reason to be.  Both are developing very well for their age (and better for their adjusted 3.5 months) and the therapist was quite pleased with their skills.  Both are turning over on their bellies on their own and holding their head up without much effort.  Both are grabbing and are aware of their surroundings.  The only negative (which truly isn't much) is I was asked to get them to sleep/rest more on their right side as they have a tendency to go left and suck only their left thumb.  I am so incredibly relieved that this is over with.  PHEW!

  • That is so wonderful - I'm glad everything went well.  Now you can have a nice, restful weekend (lol).

  • That's such great news!  Was it an OT evaluating them?  I may have missed an earlier post, but was there a reason for concern?

    They are just so adorable.  I smile whenever I see your siggy pics!

    It was actually a requirement from our hospital as they spent time in the NICU and were "technically" preemies.  When I first heard about it I was extremely concerned, but my pedi eased my fears when she told me that since they requested a date so far after their release, there was no reason for concern, but still, I'm a mom after all.  :oP

  • Yay! Great news, Bea!
  • I'm glad they're doing so well!

    And repositioning is a great idea if they're favoring one side.  Part of why Aaron had brachycephaly was because of his Torticollis and leaning to his right side (totally different situation but related). I hope they don't fight you too much on that.

    The only negative (which truly isn't much) is I was asked to get them to sleep/rest more on their right side
     
    I used a sleep positioner to keep Simon on his left side every night since he had bad reflux.  It worked great, but he outgrew it at 5 months (was able to roll right up and over the side and out of it) so it might be too late to start that for your boys...
