Ashley is doing great. She is sleeping through the night great but now that we know how to roll over she wakes up up around 8:30 AM because she gets stuck in the corner of the crib and can't roll back over. Fun Stuff......
We went to the pediatrician this past week. She is now weighing in at 15 lbs and is 26 3/4 inches long.
We also have some great updates on her Brachial Plexus Injury and her Tortocollis. We went to Miami the last week of September to meet with the specialist who only deals with the Brachial Plexus. He did a nerve conduction test and some motor skills demos with her. The results are in that she has mild nerve damage and will not need any surgery. We will continue with Occupational Therapy once a month to watch her motor skills progress.
As for the Tortocollis, the lump is almost gone and she no longer carries the tilt. She is still tight on rotating her head all the way right. She saw a new therapist today since ours is on vacation. He said she looks wonderful and other than her rotation he wouldn't be able to tell that she had the Tortocollis. He said we are doing great. She has been advised to get a helmet to round her head. They said it is not bad and should only require 6-10 weeks. She was so tight for the last few months that her head position was a challenge to change. We will have an appointment next week her in West Palm for a consult and we will see where we go from there.
Mark is doing great with her and we are loving parenthood.......
