Re: Newborn diagnosed with cp

Posted by Jessica on January 23, 2007, 7:58 am, in reply to "Re: Newborn diagnosed with cp"

Good Morning, chloe was born without oxygen for 10 min, which they had to perform cpr... it was a normal pregnancy and everything was well until that certian day, chloe wasnt prem, hse was born at 41 weeks, due to her lack of oxygen she has a severe brain injury, the dr. didnt exspect her to be doing anything, hse is definitly suprising them all, we just hope that her progress continues. She looks at faces, and hse holds her toys, she bats at them, she giggles in response to me making faces at her. As far as mobility goes, her legs are a bit stiff but her physio says they arent too bad. She went to one of her neurologist last week and he said he didnt think she would be able to sit up, and I have been working on that wiht her, and she is starting too... shes a tough little girl. Also her head circum isnt at the normal spot.. she is below the curve, does laney have a smaller head than most? Thank you!!! Jess and Chloe
