Chistmas Eve addison had to go in to see the nurses at the clinic so they could check how she was making out ....We were late of course but thankfully there were no other patients to be found when we got there. She was stripped down and weighed , coming in at 7lbs 2ozs which was 10ozs more then what she was when we left. We discussed her feedings , diapers, sleep patterns, etc ..Then she was hungry so i fed her while the nurse gave me some great pointers...aparently i'm overproducing which is making addison spit up quite often. Then she tells me that addison failed her hearing tests , which they neglected to tell me while i was there ..so they had to try the test again ...after many tries she still failed the test so now she has to see a hearing specialist (audiologist) to get more testing done ...eecckk...then she goes on to say "oh if newborns get their hearing aids before 3 months there usually isn't any development problems " ..as u can imagine i walked out of there completely stunned....since then i'm now certain she can hear ...to what degree i'm not sure but she definitely startles to loud noises and likes being talked to ..so here's hoping it was just an error in the testing....
