NICU Follow Up Clinic!!!!!

On Tuesday we made a trip to Childrens Hospital for the 2nd of 4 NICU follow up Clinics. The clinics are provided at no cost to families of preemies that were in thier NICU. They are following up with kids to see how they are developing and we could not be more pleased. Remember the babies are 16 months old but neurologically thier brains are only at a 13 month old level. Here are the results.

Way to go Teddy!!

They want the numbers to be between 85-115 which are normal scores, anything below is a concern. Everyone was at or above. Grandma was in with Teddy and he was getting tired she said that he did not do things that she knew he could, but even with being tired he did great and is doing awesome.

We couldn't be happier with thier development. When they were born at just 27 weeks there we so many unknowns.

They are playing, talking and having fun. So many things that we had no idea if they would accomplish. We know they have thier special Angel helping them along the way. I wish I was able to write Maddie's scores.

Praise be to God for these beautiful

Healthy

Smart

Babies!!

We go back for a NICU follow up when they are 2 years corrected age (so December 2010) this will be the last time they adjust for prematurity, after December they will just be 2!! Then they go back for one last follow up when they turn 4 1/2.

Way to go babies Mama LOVES you so much!!!!!
