EI Check In

Who's with me?

I triggered the eval because he's not babbling, his weight has tanked, and he has hypertonia. He qualified last week after failing communication, showing weaknesses in expressive and receptive. He passed his newborn screen, so beats me what's going on. We're following up with audiology. We won't know about services until we sit down with the coordinator to draw up the IFSP. 

Since it'll be asked: receptively they checked for response to voices, response to a sound, response to name, and imitating sounds. Expressively they wanted to know if he was producing at least four different cries for different needs, whether he's babbling, which vowel sounds he has, which consonants he has, and chained babbling (dadada, etc.). You have to miss three items in a row to end the test, which is why they asked about chained babbling at all. The CDC doesn't flag lack of chained or rhythmic babbling until nine months.
