When you are not sitting right next to her, just make some noise or call her from a distance, she will respond.
My twins were in NICU for 10 days and passed their hearing test there. Sometimes at home (at 5.5 months) they won't repsond to us calling or talking as after a while playing they loose intrest, you can check by introducing a new sound to make sure.
Don't stress yourself, your little princess looks precious and she will do good at the appointment. My love and prayers for kailees appointment to go well.
I am sure it is nothing, but we have to get it checked mainly b/c of the state department of Health requires re-testing for babies who were in a lvl2 nursery for over 24 hours and because Mommy and Daddy want it as well..lol
GL Ladies!!! I will kjnow more tomorrow of when she will get to see the ENT. Then I can get back to stressing over TTC..lol!
They just took my letter, and now we are waiting to hear from someone about making an appointment with the specialist. We have medicaid, and since her Peds office doen't have te equipment for the test we have to get a referral to the ENT doctor. Hopefully we will hear something soon. I'm thinking about videotaping her and the sounds she makes and her lack of repsonse to her name and stuff. By now she should be responding when someone calls her name... ugh.. regardless of the outcome of all this she is my little princess and is very loved by many people. I keep thinking of that movie 'Mr. Holland's Opus'.. good movie, you should see it if you haven't.
CD3 for me. Heavy Flow (TMI), no cramps but my back hurts soooo bad! I need a new matress..lol
Stace- Good to hear from you!!! FX For you sweetie!!
I hope your daughter feels better soon. I hate ticks!! lol
I can't text for a while.. my bill last month was 120 dollars over!! But, last month is excused b/c of eerything that happened with Mom. So this month I am on text restriction..lol

Well... CD1 for me. AF showed her ugly face! DH says we keep getting closer to our goal..lol
Right now we need to concentrate on Kailee. Tomorrow we turn in the letter so we can get the referral to the ENT Specialist. She still shows some signs of hearing loss in her left ear, and we want it checked ASAP so we can find out one way or another if she does indeed have some hearing loss that way we can get it treated.
Do any of you know of anyone who has had a baby that passed the hearing test but then failed it later on? They say the main reason she could be at risk is because of her stay in the NICU, and having to be on the vent for a little while. The not knowing is driing DH and I nuts!
We keep clapping behind her to see if she responds, and sometimes she shows some sort of response, but more oftern than not she doesn't respond well. I don't think it is a total hearing loss in her left hear, but a slight loss. Like she only hears certain tones.
But who knows, I could be stressing over nothing. The joys of a first time Mom!!
