WEEK RECAP

I havent gotten around to mentioning everything that has happened this week so lets recap. At the beginning of the week, I took Adalynn to the Ears, Nose, and Throat specialist who works with the audiologist to check her hearing again. She failed again in one ear. This makes her 4th time to fail in an ear, but the Doctor is still seeing fluid in both her ears. Since its a drainage problem, he wants to wait just a few months longer in hopes that it will resolve on its own. We are going to check again at that point and if there is still fluid and she fails her hearing test again then she will have tubes placed in her ears.
A day later at the pulmonologist, all three babies were evaluated to check their O2 levels and their lungs and to recieve their routine shots. Everyones oxygen saturation were great and their lungs sounded good as well. They all had a recent bout of RSV, but the doctor was pleased at how they weathered the sickness. He knew they were high risk and high probability of getting RSV due to their prematurity, so the shots that they have been getting definitely helped in keeping it to a mild case. The RSV never made it down into the kiddos lungs.
The triplets also recieved another home visit from the physical therapist and nurse. They usually recieve two nurse visits and one physical therapist visit a month to evaluate Landon and Adalynn. They are now going to switch this to 3 physical therapy visits a month since the two dont seem to be progressing in their milestones as quickly as the therapist would like. In addition we noticed recently that Landon favors turning his head to one side and doesnt seem to have full range of motion turning his head to the left. We are going to start stretching his neck to help with this. Basically the triplets are 8 and a half months old but they still dont roll over consistantly, they cannot sit up on their own, they dont like tummy time...etc...geez. I cant wait until they can all sit up on their own.
