| Birth to One Year Old | ||||||||
| Tests, Milestones, and Results 11 months: got her first pair of glasses (-6 prescription), crawled within weeks of getting glasses. Rolled over both ways. 10 months: ISFP created with ECI, started OT. 9 months: referred to ECI for development delays including not crawling, not sitting alone unassisted, and not rolling over both ways. Also recommended seeing an ophthalmologist and neurologist. 6 months: diagnosed failure to thrive, blood tests all came back normal, except she was a little anemic, referred to gastroenterologist for possible reflux. Treated for reflux for 3 months with no change. Blood work included CBC, thryoid, complete metabolic panel, urine culture and urinalysis. First 6 months: easily startled, hard to calm, very fidgety and jumpy, would only eat 2-3 ounces of milk at a time, started falling off the chart for weight (and hasn't been back on yet!). Had a barium swallow study at 2 months that was normal. First few weeks: a little jaundiced, but not treated. Wonderous and angelic time! Birth: uneventful. Labor was 4 hours. Pushed for 10 minutes. There was no golden hour of bonding... Anna cried and cried the whole time! |
