In the past month, Ailyn has been really showing improvement in therapy. She has met some milestones that we have been working hard on for months! They might seem very small to most, but for Ailyn, they are HUGE! We are so proud of her.
Ailyn will NOT hold two objects at the same time. Not matter how much you try to trick her. BUT, NO MORE! I looked up to see her not only holding two toy rings but she was banging them together!! I was so excited to tell her therapist when she came today!
Ailyn also has started splashing the water in the bathtub. She has done it every night since she started. Once Ailyn masters a milestone she doesn't forget how and can do it well. This is huge!
She is getting everywhere now. She puts her hands together and drags her whole body all around. We are still working on using her legs with the creeping. But, she does put weight on her legs.
The neurologist appointment went very well! We are very happy with the doctor, in fact we really like her. She made us feel very comfortable. Ailyn will have an EEG done in a couple weeks. We are going to do genetic testing. Since Ailyn was gestationally small for 28 weeks and she has remained small, she thinks we just need to do some testing. Her developmental pediatrician has brought this up too. She agrees we can wait for the feeding tube.
And, the best milestone! Ailyn made it to her first Red Sox game!!! It was so hot... but both kids did very well. This was Camden's third game of the year and I am sure not the last.
